Johnny Sutton

Johnny Sutton, also known as Randolph Sutton Junior and John Sutton, worked at Southdean Holiday Centre - John did 5 seasons at Southdean 1961, 1962, 1966, 1967 and 1968

Rowena did 3 seasons, 1966 with the Nelson & Cadet show, which is when she met John, and then 1967 and 1968 seasons with John.

During that time, they got married and were both on the entertainment staff with Kenny Essex. 

(Personal note by Peter Sharp - I remember being a Page Boy at their wedding which was in Seaford in East Sussex.  I can also remember my mother taking me to Gunton Hall holiday camp to visit John and Rowena, and at that time John had a lime green E Type jaguar!)

One year they did a sketch for the weekly camp show where Rowena was a nurse and had the line - "Oh, you naughty boy!".  This became a catch phrase for them.

Johnny had at least one EP record released under the name of Randolph Sutton Junior, which included the tracks:

• I'll go where your music takes me
• Sing me
• You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me
• I Am A Song.
