      Hi Granville

      Thanks for your comments.

      I will be updating this in the near future.

      There is an article abut Donald Pleasance, which you may have read.

    I wondering if Jon Jo Irwin should be included in this list. He brought back a gold medal from the Common Wealth Games in the 90s and became feather weight British Champion which he defends to win out right.
    He now runs a charity working with disengaged young people in Mexbrough, Denaby and Conisbrough… contributing to the community that supported him
