Ashley Wilson was the society's longest-serving member, appearing in many G&S tenor roles well after he left the university.
The only G&S shows Ashley may not have performed in are Patience, The Grand Duke and Thespis. He may have appeared in Highlights from The Grand Duke, the closest the society ever came to performing it fully-staged, but no programme from this event exists in The Archive. From the three main shows of Patience during Ashley's tenure, only one has a programme in the Archive, in which he is not mentioned.
Hours of fun for all the family can be had by playing 'Spot Ashley Wilson'.1 The game involves watching old G&S shows. Whoever spots Ashley Wilson first scores one point. Players can score a second point by being the first to name his character. You don't win this game, you just do slightly better each time.
