Following the success of death match 64, this time we jump back to a TV TIMES competition from May 1973. Who is the best dressed man in May 1973?To help you make up your mind, here is some insider clobber info for you: Quite what happened to candidate J is anyone's guess. Clearly he pulled out at the last minute. Pick 2!

Complete the sentence: Forsyth wears ____________ . Btw, there IS a TV TIMES winner to this (I have found the winning article). I wonder if it will match the outcome of our death match. Cargill's strides are well dodgy for me.

To be honest, Slasher Distillery looks a right old scruff. When I set this one up, he was the only one...

Okay, I voted for.........................
Patrick Mower's bow tie and tank top lady killer combo. And Patrick Cargill's safari jacket, chequered flares and necktie.

Yes, can see those two fitting in perfectly for an evening of choux pastry delicacies and apéritifs at Stanton Hall dressed like that.

Both outfits would look jolly wizard with a cucumber sandwich and some croquet.

Dear oh dear, what a bunch of pansies ! Roger Moore has always looked liked the smarmiest estate agent in the world, yuk. Parky is just a complete t__t, Pat Mower looks like he's got his best clobber on for a Playschool audition. Cargill is on his way to the Darby and Joan Club, and as for 'Man at C&A' Brucie....... Sasha Distel is about to film an "....I bet she wears Harmony hair spray...." advert. And I bet none of them wear 'Denim' or 'Brut' especially Cliff and Russell Harty. At least Powell and Dimbleby look like proper Geezers. .....and where's Rod Todger ? He out-Geezers all of them !!!

... all this bashing of Cliff's rug is to hide the fact people are actually a closet fan, thus it rubs off on the rest of us.

There's nothing in the closet about some people's love for Sir Kitty Wig. You should see some people's houses, like a big shrine it is!

Hey I know this is difficult to believe but I am only human. The minute people start voting for Cliff on death matches means that it's big butterfly nets on standby time. And that as a precautionary measure all phasers need to be switched from 'stun' to 'high incendiary'

And the deserved winner was ... PATRICK MOWER (TV Times 4th August 1973) Roger Moore?! I tell you, his fashions have nothing on the Mower.

I knew I'd have picked the winner. If there's one thing I know about, it's style.

In fairness Arch, Brother Mower does look a bit like he's ready to go for one of your fine dining evenings at Stanton Hall complete with hors d'oeuvre, samples of rare port and sauteed potatoes. Well done for picking the winner, I find myself also in the same boat as it happens. Cliff will be off for a pasty with mias no doubt.

The Mower finally gets his prize, a role in 'Target' and even better, to host the final of Miss Nightclub 1977:

Miss Nightclub 1977! It sounds really sleazy doesn't it. I wish I'd have been there. My kind of event.

It sounds really sleazy doesn't it. I wish I'd have been there. My kind of event. I wonder why they don't have events / programmes like that any more? I wonder what the girls would have to do to win? Show the most flesh - preferably orange and tattooed. Glass someone. 'Get to know' the most men in the toilets. Get completely 100% incoherently paralytic the quickest. Fall over the least number of times outside in the street. Throw up the least number of times outside in the street. Restrain yourself from verbally abusing a copper. Eat an XXL kebab without dropping more than 10% on the ground. and the decider... Remember your name and where you are at the end of it. Right, I'm going to submit that to the makers of Britain's Got Talent. With a proviso that Patrick Mower presents it. (Chezza Tweedy-Cole is a surefire winner of the celebrity version every time...)
