Is the horse still alive?

[Hitman]

The Pantomime horse named Dobbin was played by 2 guys - William Perrie & John Asquith. John is still working as his page on imdb has him for a new credit, I think they are both alive:



Other cast members of Rentaghost who have passed away are:

Michael Staniforth who played Timothy Claypole died of aids in 1987
Edward Brayshaw who played Harold Meaker died in 1990
Kenneth Connor who played Whatsisname Smith died in 1993
Patsy Smart who played Aunt Mable died in 1996
Betty Alberge who played Mrs. Mumford died in 1991

It's very, very scary that you care enough about this to source the info, particularly as Rentaghost was a load of plop!

[Hitman]

Not scary at all!!! lol!! the info is on the internet, I just copyed what I read. I used to watch it as a kid.I'm no fan of the show, sure it was not the best show on tv, but it was not the worst. I was just showing a little respect for the actors and actresses that have passed away from that show.
I think you completely miss the point!!
