Robin Gibb, one third of the world’s most famous family band, took a break from filming for the BBC’s Who Do You Think You Are? in Winton, Salford.

He dashed into Good Looks Salon on Worsley Road, then stayed to chat to customers and staff.
Robin, who was brought up in Chorlton, was filming at nearby Alder Forest Funeral Home. for the BBC programme, where celebrities trace their family trees.
Funeral director Eric Birch was interviewed on camera and was told that research had traced a Gibb family member, a nurse, who used to live in the property in the 1930s.

Eric said: "I didn’t know the crew was coming, they just turned up and said they were filming for Who Do You Think You Are?

"I was interviewed and then I had a chat with Robin.
"He was a nice bloke and really down to earth. He caused quite a fuss and there were loads of people taking pictures."
After filming, it is understood Robin went on to the Marriot Hotel in Worsley for lunch.

Robin Gibb’s secret song for actor is unearthed

A previously unknown Robin Gibb song has emerged among the belongings of the late Peter Wyngarde, 
the actor who starred in the 1970s ITV detective series Jason King and who played Klytus in the 1980 film Flash Gordon. 
The lyric sheet for I Will Surrender says the words and music were written by Gibb, one of the brothers who formed the Bee Gees, in 1970. 

The song is only three verses long and has no chorus. It ends with the typewritten lines: “

All the crowds are far and few, and my giant music halls are empty, we had rehearsed a rendezvous, seems I must surrender to you! Yes I will surrender to you.”
