Robert Tronson - Britmovie

Does anyone know if he's still around and what he's doing - obviously in retirement ?

Last thing I recall seeing his credit on was HETTY WAINTHROPP INVESTIGATES for the Beeb.

Ironic that he ended up trundling out in telly ; in the 60s he was very scathing about working for the small screen at times.

He Directed a lot of episodes of "MAN IN A SUITCASE" 1967. I remember one about a casino when they named it Tronsons Casino.

Spot on Hackett ! It was the episode JIGSAW MAN where they sent poor Sivaun O' Casey (?) to hang outside Tronson's club, looking rather dubious ! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blushing.gif[/img]

MIAS - Top series ! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/clapping.gif[/img]
