[Yakattack]

Who is the oldest famous (in Britain ) still alive?

[DTCwordfan]

tuff. I have - you aren't a cricket fan then, otherwise you would know.

[Mass_Hysteria]

Olivia de Havilland's sister Joan Fontaine, a year younger at 95!
Also a British citizen who didn't live here

[Answerprancer]

Not in Britain but Zsa Zsa Gabor is 96 (bless her).

[DTCwordfan]

What is Joan Collins pushing now? age, not cosmetics.

[Answerprancer]

Zacs Meister! Never heard of him? ...don't be a silly Billy!

[DTCwordfan]

I thought George Beverley Shea had died, but apparently not. He was/is a Christian singer who sang at the Billy Graham rallies (the US evangelist often visted UK)

[Ann]

and he is 104

Thanks for the list Ann but it appears to focus on US 'stars'

As an example Patrick Moore is not mentioned.

I know he wasnt that old (89-90) but would still rate a mention

The oldest Pratt, still alive is that bloody woman.

Not the oldest, but it's perhaps somewhat ironic that Mikhail Kalashnikov has so far reached 93 without meeting any stray bullets ...

[weecalf]

the old man of hoy must be getting on a bit now

[Yakattack]

So it looks like Anna Wing is the winner.......so far!

Just dropped on this thread after searching for George Beverley Shea. I had been dabbling in you tube and dropped on George singing the song he was famous for "How great thou art".
George died recently, 16 April aged 104.
