Fact #78869

When:

Short story:

As a result of his recent trouser-splitting antics onstage in Croydon, P.J.Proby is banned from performing in all ABC Theatres in the UK.

Full article:

P. J. Proby : They tried to kill me off by banning me from everywhere. It was Lord Longford and Mary Whitehouse and people like that who carried out the vendetta against me.

I got shafted by the authorities, railroaded. I think they were just jealous of what I was about.

It damaged my career badly. It's not much good if you are a performer but no-one will allow you to perform anywhere.
