Baldy67 Posted March 28, 2009 Author Share Posted March 28, 2009 Enjoy the video of Jilted john on Top Of The Pops Jilted John Ha ha ha, cheers for that, my giggle for today, Don't know how he didn't get banned back then for saying "p**f", "s**g" and "t**t", Frankie got banned for alot less. Did you sing to any Gordon's you knew then "Gordon is a moron"? Aaah good ol' days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark House Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I saw Graham playing Paul McCartney in the play Lennon at the Crucible in 1981, not long after the murder of the great man. I can't stand theatre, but this was very good indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveH Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Among other things he's brother-in-law to Ainsley Heriot I believe. The success of his song went before him. I, probably like many people, never knew his real name was Graham Fellows. To most people he was just "Jilted John" But we always just used to refer to him as "Gordon the moron" As the song was called "Jilted John" and was by "Jilted John" it sort of begs the question if he actually had any other hit records apart from "Jilted John" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Greenwood Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 John Shuttleworth lives in Walkley and used to be a security guard at a sweet factory in the Rotherham area according to his biography. As well as the Shuttleworths, there's a full Jilted John LP called 'True Love Stories' and, as Graham Fellows. 'Love at the Hacienda' which is a lost classic post-punk LP that just happens to be quite funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
