Anonymous said...: Actually the father of Gary and Harry (comedy tigers) Thomas.

I have been told that Col Thomas was the ringmaster on GSOE when they were making the movie but refused to appear in the movie when he was told he would not be paid. Is this true?
It's a shame because with all due respect, the fellow who played the part was dreadful.

I believe Gary is heading up the elephant retirement farm. Does anybody know where and how Harry is doing? We still miss those comedy tigers.
