My Dad joined Candlewick as lead singer in the early 80's. His name is Jeff Lewis and he's from South Wales. He had a stroke last year, and has retired from singing because of ill health. He would love to see some of the old stuff he did. I anyone could help, that would be fantastic. I know they did Crackerjack once. I remember us going to the Isle of Man with the band for summer season. Hope someone can help!

I remember a member of the band called Jimmy Nunnen. He worked in a printing factory with my mother. He gave me his Subbuteo football game! I don't know what became of him after fame!

Hi Terry, This is Tony Burns here (Ines Burns & the Signs). Long Time no speak!!!
Just to clear a few things up on here, Peter O' Connel was not in Candlewick Green, If it's the same guy he was in The Signs with me and Dave Kerrigan.
Hope all is well with you and great to see the video, brought back fond memories of the old days. Really sorry to hear about Dudley. R.I.P.
Get in touch,
Cheers
Tony Burns

Derek is my Dad!
Yes, it will have been him on Coronation Street as he did loads of extra work there. I found this video last night and it's really fab for me as I grew up going to their gigs so it brought back lots of happy memories for me too.
I showed the vid to my Dad this morning and he asked me to say thanks to everyone here for the lovely comments- he really enjoyed seeing the vid and is as chuffed as I am that I came across it.
If anyone has any more let me know!:-)
