Talk:Barry Lupino

Two; rather than one ?
There is something not quite correct here. How can someone who died in 1962, have produced television shows until 1969 ! I think there may be two individuals of the same name getting confused in other records, and thus being listed together.

One appears to be a comedian and film actor, whose birth and death dates are probably correct as quoted in this article, who appeared in films in the 1930s and early 1940s. The other is a television director/executive who worked in the 1960s. Certainly this name appears in Born Brilliant: The Life Of Kenneth Williams, circa 1966, and refers to Lupino as 'an executive'.

The former would not have produced The Fred Emney Show in 1957, at the age of 75. Sorry, I do not have the time to explore this further at present, but perhaps someone can follow it up. Thanks,

 * Following, somewhat belatedly on from the above comments, I have removed the television production work wording, which clearly is another person.
