That Uncertain Feeling became the film Only Two Can Play with Peter Sellers. Filmed in Swansea.
Lucky Jim was written in Swansea and The Old Devils was set in Swansea ( inspired by his drinking mates in The Rock And Fountain, if memory serves).

His son Martin was born in Swansea. Pair of Jack bastards, innit.




Worth a look ,..

Parts of Only Two Can Play were filmed in the Public Hall in Briton Ferry.

Going to add the TV channel, Now 70's. Some great videos I've never seen on there from the, er, 70's. Punk, new wave, disco, rock, even Donny Osmond.

Freeview 78 or Sky 373 .

Watch it or just have it as background music.

Now 80's and Now 90's are also available.


I saw Billy Joel on there earlier.

Great channel though.

Kingsley Amis' cat used to live next door to me in Townhill 😂 When he left Swansea in the very early 1960's he left his cat with my next door neighbour.
True story.

Plus when as a very small child in the 1950's, we lived in rooms in the Uplands, and he lived around the corner in The Grove. He was known as a notorious p1ss head just like Dylan, so I bet he would have been over the moon to find out that the house he also lived at in St Helens Road would eventually become part of the Wig and Pen

The original Randall and Hopkirk deceased with Annette Andre and Ken Cope in a rug. Bliss.


The theme tune is awesome, too.

I’ve just started Mike Ingham’s autobiography and is unsurprisingly an excellent read so far.

I didn’t realise that Ingham spent some of his formative years living in Swansea - Derwen Fawr Road, Sketty to be precise.

The first sporting occasion he ever attended was Glamorgan against the touring South Africans at St Helens in 1951.

He does not mention Alan Green once in the entire book.
