  1. Do you remember Anthea Redfern, who Bruce Forsyth used to twirl - before he married and divorced her? Pic should be on google.

  2. Thanks Ulaca

    I don’t know who Anthea Redfern is but having googled her I have to say there are some interesting pics from that era! I’ve heard of Anthea Turner.

    Anthea is a rare name, right?

  3. Off the bat, without Googling - remember the old days of true ignorance rather than pretended knowledge? - I'd say it was from the Greek meaning "flower". Rarish.

  4. Thanks Ulaca - very rare these days to resist the temptation to Google.
