More than likely but not everyone can handle the truth.
If Jack has dementia, never before did I realise that mental Illness could have the aspect of power.Think of it; perhaps the more insane Jack is, the more powerful he could become.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

The beard, hair and black/white photo age him I think. I bet if he 'cleaned up' he'd look like good for a 65-year-old.

Is that a current photo? I don’t who she is but that does not look like someone in their 80s!!

Spoiler doesn't help, obviously not Elvis, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bill Haley or Little RIchard but I have no idea who it is!

I”m presuming it’s the lead singer of Prefab Sprout? I quite like Prefab Sprout but wouldn’t have a clue what the singer looked like so I’m none the wiser either!

It is indeed Paddy McAloon from Prefab Sprout looking much like Terry Pratchett did.

For those who didn't understand the clue, it was a quote from one of their songs, The King of Rock'n'Roll.

I was a big fan of Prefab Sprout back in the old days and would never had guessed from the pic. We all get old but it's a very different look.

Here he is back then

My mum is in her 80’s and looks younger than that. Doesn’t drink or smoke (which has helped). Gym 3 times a week.
