Do we have a David Niven fan? His was a verfy elegant actor.

By complete coincidence i'm reading his biography right now. I'm not far into it but so far has been an entertaining read.

Hello Roy ...is it "The Moon's a Balloon" you are reading at the moment?.... that was the first autobiography...... yes it it very entertaining & absolutely hilarious in places.....

Hello Kitty, yes we most definitely do have a David Niven fan here (bit of an understatement really as I have been a fan of his since I was 13). Sadly for me, I never got to meet him, but in 1989 was able to pay my respects at his graveside in Switzerland. He certainly was a very elegant actor, & by all accounts written about him, a very charming man.

Nope, it's one written a few years ago called 'Niv' by Graham Lord but does contain some stories from 'The moon's a balloon'.
So far no one's had a bad word to say about him. You can't say that about many people!

I read The Moons a Balloon and it was a great read. I also read Bring on the empty horses which was brilliant too.
He seemed a really nice genuine down to earth sorta guy as far as I could make out.
As said, not heard any bad stuff about him.
