Jake Thackray - That's Life

[ecofugal]

Does anyone remember the singer Jake Thackray.
He used to appear on Esther Rantzen's That's Life in the 70s.

It was a strange time when they actually let talented people perform on TV.

Yes I do remember him (these forums do make me feel old sometimes! ).
I did actually find him quite amusing.

Yeah, remember him well. One line (from a song about suffering his mother in law for the sake of his wife) always stuck in my mind. "And even when she asks me to caress her scabby cat, I'll not complain!"
