I thought he looked better bulked up. Great wrestler though. About 5 years ago he was an extra on Emmerdale, you could always see him in the Woolpack. He used to ref for Otto Wanz's set up in Germany too. Lots of him reffing on Youtube.
That's really interesting. I had heard about the Emmerdale thing but never really watched it. Could you post the links to the youtube videos you refer to?
I knew Mick from about mid 60s to end of 70s. I lost contact after that. He was from Doncaster. Very nice guy, tough man. I did hear that he had gone to live in Tenerife part of the ex wrestlers colony out there. But not certain.

Many thanks for that. It's strange to wish for the video quality of the 70s over that of the 90s.....
As for the kilt I have no idea but maybe the black trunks lurk under it (being up above the audience one would hope something did)
