The important thing of course is that we're getting some great announcements. clifton is a dream come true for me - my first big screen bond experience as a kid was a double bill of live n let die and golden gun in the 70s with my dad, so thats a very special and important guest to me, as im sure to all other bond fans too.

Calumn Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 These are brilliant announcement. I am a huge Chelsea fan so Peter Bonnetti is a great guest for me and Clifton James is quite simply one of the best guests ever landed at a Showmasters event. By the way, guess who first requested CJ ages and ages ago http://showmastersonline.com/forums/index....l=clifton+james Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crostini Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 i'd nether heard of Peter Bonetti as when i've watched the clips from the 1966 games he didnt play a single game so thats why i wouldnt know who he is. however if there are vivid chelsea fans then its ok for them. I'd like George Cohen as im a Fulham Fan and hes always at games but we never get to meet him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyT Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 i'd nether heard of Peter Bonetti as when i've watched the clips from the 1966 games he didnt play a single game so thats why i wouldnt know who he is. 866633[/snapback] Given the Fulham-Chelsea rivalry, I'm amazed you've never heard of Bonetti; he played for Chelsea for like, forever - I assume you're too young to have seen him. Here's a quick bio I found: ******************** Peter "The Cat" Bonetti (born September 27, 1941) was a football goalkeeper for Chelsea F.C., the St. Louis Stars and England. Born in Putney. Chelsea signed him from the Reading youth team. He made 729 appearances for Chelsea between 1959 and 1979, a record at the time and in one season managed 21 clean sheets. Towards the end of career he spent one season with the St. Louis Stars in the NASL. His international career is unfortunately remembered for his last game - in the World Cup of 1970 in Mexico, as a replacement for Gordon Banks in the quarterfinal when West Germany came back from 2-0 down to win 3-2. That game was Bonetti's only World Cup appearance. Bonetti at one time held the record for most appearances for a single club by a goalkeeper, but was overtaken in the 1990s by Portsmouth F.C.'s Alan Knight. ******************** (Apart from his unfortunate last game for England, where he was at fault for a couple of the goals, he was generally a sound keeper who would have played quite a few games for England if it hadn't been for the brilliance of Gordon Banks and then the emergence of Peter Shilton) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylover Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 lol awesome, Clifton James was also a Sheriff in Cimarron Strip, The Dukes of Hazzard, A-team, The Fall Guy, and Superman 2... cool lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenGreen Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 (edited) Oh, just realised the photo that David Hedison signed for me, also has Clifton on it. I may get him to add his sig as well. Clifton seems to have made a career out of playing law enforcement officers.
