Is that Oliver Reed? Because I used to go to the same pub as him...

It is indeed! One of the early influences for this dissertation topic. I'd love to hear any stories you have about him in the survey

I was maybe two years old? I have no memories of my own sadly, but apparently I liked him. Drunk men were funny!

My Auntie Anne used to drink with Oliver Reed! She passed away some years ago, but she always said he was a gentleman and lots of fun.

The Crooked House, Himley, which was recently the victim of arson was known for the way things seemed to to "roll uphill"

And The Giffard Arms in Wolverhampton has a devil's throne that is supposed to get you pregnant if you sit in it! Plus various other bits of folklore

I went to “The Pub” in Malta earlier this year, where Oliver Reed died. I also went to a pub in Lancaster where I took this photo…. Not sure of the full story. Will also check your link
