[edit] Bob Flaps
Page is about a non-existent subject. Following the IMDB link leads to an entry where the subject appears only as character not an actor. I believe the other telly programmes mentioned to be fictitous too. Also check out this story on BBC Radio Scotland which throws more doubt.
- Bob Flaps certainly is a character in "The Big Tease" (1999) but I can't find any references to any of the details of his television career or sad demise. A hoax I think. delete The BBC Radio Scotland link above ties him to Iron Balls McGinty, and the two pages have a remarkably similar initial history. As Mr. Ginty, a man of legendarily steely body parts, is also a character from a movie, "The Jerk" (1979), maybe he should be VfD as well? Sliggy 17:40, July 29, 2005 (UTC)
