After defeating the Kaiser in 1918, Freddie jumped ship and made his way to Hollywood. He immediately became part of the in-crowd and was known as the limey equivalent of Rudolph Valentino. During this time Freddie developed many of his catchphrases that you can still hear him say today – however, as all his roles back then were in silent movies they never really did catch on.

After playing a huge part in Hitler’s downfall Fred found himself back in the limelight; often rubbing shoulders with Frank, Dean and Sammy although Freddie’s gang of Brit entertainers, also known as the Crap Pack, never really hit the same heights as Sinatra’s crew.

During the Swinging Sixties Fred’s musical career continued to soar – often being referred to as the 5th Beatle and the 6th Rolling Stone and for a time was a member of Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick, Tich and Fred. However, a rather unsavoury moment involving Freddie, the Queen and a band of banjo-playing dwarfs at the 1972 Royal Variety performance led to Fred disappearing into the entertainment wilderness and being stripped of his recently awarded knighthood. A surprise invite to star as James Bond’s grandfather in the movie, “The name’s Bond, Basildon Bond” brought Freddie back into the public eye and a guest spot as Peter Faulk’s great uncle in Columbo cemented his comeback.

Round about this time, Fred had started taking a serious interest in golf, however, his attempt to conceal 27 clubs including 5 putters and 4 drivers in his golfbag led to his disqualification from the PGA tour.

Demoralized by this sporting knock back Freddie turned his hand and nose to restaurants, heading for the bright lights of the Twin Cites. After realizing that nobody could understand him, Fred brought the mountain to Mohammad and Brit’s Pub and Eating Establishment was born. The rest they say is history.
