Led Zeppelin Fan00 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Anyone know who this really is??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KashmirDevi Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 It's the Jasta 11 division of the German Air Force. The Red Barron was the leader, he's the guy in the cockpit and his brother Lothar is the one sitting in the very front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I was talking about the subject of the thread - Molly Wopsy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyPage1977 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 The Molly Wopsies was written by a 50-year-old Mr Smith, a machine-line worker at the Morris car factory in Oxford, England, who speculatively submitted a script to the TV company. The story was set in wartime Oxfordshire, in the village of Heathcote, and centred on two child evacuees who gave the local ghost the name Molly Wopsy and then proceeded to form a gang, also with that name. Led by Dinky Dunkley, the outfit had one major adversary: the village copper PC Berry. Close on two years after the original pilot episode (titled simply The Molly Wopsy) Thames screened a full series of adventures, utilising Arthur Askey's recording of Run, Rabbit, Run as the theme tune. Also appeared as a guest artist on RP's "Principle Of Moments". I'm assuming as a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Led Zeppelin Fan00 Posted November 26, 2007 Author Share Posted November 26, 2007 all that is true... But why was the name mentioned on TPOM??? Clues: What is and what should never be the rain song ten years gone Were all written about her... And no... It's not Mo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've gathered the inspiration of those songs were Maureen's younger sister, Shirley, whom, according to legend, Robert never got over.

Bingo!!! Molly Wopsy was the nom de plume for her as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also found out that those who would like to see Shirley can in the TSRTS DVD. She apparently is the woman in the front row who is clapping and smiling proudly in a white hooded outfit. it shows her twice. I guess that I'd learned this once and forgotten it! Tough getting old, innit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard it from a couple of different sources. She resembles Mo, but younger, so I'm thinking that it's true! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could very well be - I just rewatched SIBLY on TSRTS, and she does resemble her. Very cool if true. Thanks JP77... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
