I’ve just left a comment myself if I’d have seen this I’d have commented here instead…. Basically saying whenever his name comes up it’s different from hearing about other celebrities, it feels more like I’ve lost someone I personally knew, worst part is since the first time any of us saw him it was kind of expected that we would lose him young but as we saw more of him I guess that opinion somewhat change but either way it more more shocking in those circumstances with an otherwise “safe” creature.

Did you know that there is a Netflix movie about Cheryl. It’s called Women of the Hour. In it they said she actually went out for drinks with Rodney after the show. And it wasn’t until after they left the bar that she turned him down. And he almost kidnapped her. But thankfully she was saved by a group of employees leaving the bar just as he was getting ready to take her. Those employees were able to give her a chance to get in her car and get away. The movie showed eventually how he was caught for raping, kidnapping then murdering his victims.

But in the bar he was acting extremely creepy. And when they were out in the middle of this dark parking lot. He asked her for her phone number so they could set up their arrangements to for their date that was out of town. She gave him a fake number and he busted her by asking what’s number? Is that a 4 or a 9. And she said let me see I’ll tell you. And he said what you don’t know what you wrote??? And he then said so this is how you tell me that we aren’t going out. At that point she was standing at her car with the car door open. And he tried grabbing her. And that was when the employees came walking out. He looked at her and said you’re lucky. And he walked away. She got in her car and drove away from the lot before he could get in his car and follow her. At the start of the movie it said it was a true story.

[@JennarationX73]

I can see how a younger person could make that mistake, but it still made me laugh. Peppered. 😂

[@dhenderson1810]

Peppard was apparently a terrible person on the set of "The A-Team". He was previously a movie actor and his most famous movie was "Breakfast At Tiffany's". There were rumors he resented being overshadowed by Audrey Hepburn in the film (even though Hepburn was meant to be the star of the film). Dwight Schultz, who played "Howling Mad" Murdock in "The A-Team" spoke about Peppard at a Q & A. 1) Peppard hated doing the show but needed the money and no one else would hire him because he was difficult to work with. He saw the show as beneath him. 2) When Schultz first met Peppard, George introduced himself by saying "I'm George Peppard, and I am not a very nice man". Schultz says that he found that a very weird way to introduce oneself, but George lived up to it, time and time again. He said George also said "People have accused me of beating my wife. It's not true, because if ever hit her, she wouldn't be around to tell about it". 3) He confirmed the stuff about Melinda Culea and Marla Heasley. 4)Peppard HATED Mr T. He resented T for barely having any acting roles before doing the show, but being the most popular star of the show, and got more fan mail. He resented T getting more money because Mr T was huge in the 80s and had his own line of merchandise as well as "A-Team" merchandise, thought T embarrassed the show by being involved in wrestling, (and having Hulk Hogan guest star in a couple of eps). There was also some racism involved. Peppard and T had physical fights on the set and wouldn't even speak to each other. Dirk Benedict (who played Faceman) had to pass message between Peppard and T because they were no longer speaking to each other outside of scenes. Peppard demanded to leave at 5pm every night and would drive off on the dot. Schultz said that he and Benedict shared more scenes because they can film them after five and George had gone home, and T was in his trailer, upset over his latest fight with Peppard. Robert Vaughan was brought in the last season because he had been George's best man and they thought he would calm Peppard down and make him work with T, but even he couldn't control him. 5) Peppard got worse the longer the show went on, and everyone on set hated him. 6) No one from the show was allowed to attend his funeral, as George told his family he didn't want any of them there.
