Trying to remember the tv programme about the guy who gambled a lot,could've owned a bookies,set in London maybe.He had fair permed hair,his on/off girlfriend had dark hair. Could've had deal in the title. Used to enjoy watching as a youngster.

Sharon Duce's chest was a highlight?

|
By:
Indeed. I was of the age then to fancy the daughter.
 Geezer from Bucks Fizz sang the theme tune. |
|
By:
I'm confused a bit too.
 Watched that episode,with the link. Very good. Was there a spin off series along similar lines? Seem to remember the girlfriend,not a wife,having black hair and the guy was younger with blond permed hair, he was a cheeky chappy type character. Pretty sure he ran or owned a bookies. Gonna have a search about the net. |

Ffs can reply now. Yup JGF was the one,getting a bit mixed up.
Gonna have a look at Prospects and Budgie,around the same era. Cheers all. |

Another cheeky chappie one was Hazell although he was a detective of sorts.
|
|
By:
Paul Nicholas also starred in a 1980s drama called "Bust" in which he played an entrepreneur / ducking and diving type.

Will have a look at Bust.Other day I watched the episode where some guy got knocked out,was giving away the goldfish for clothes. I remember getting a ballon off the rag'n'bone man when I was a kid. Happy days at the time. Don't think my dad was too happy though!
 |
|
By:
Better than when Jimmy Nail played a traveller mm! Did you see that one. His accent was all over the place with Geordie mixed in!
|
|
By:
Prospects was good at the time. Starred the late Gary Olsen. Think it was made by the same company as Minder. Euston Films.
|
|
By:
Was the co star a black guy, Brian something?
|
|
By:
Yup. Brian Bovell. Think my favourite was uncle harrys system. Keep backing the fav on the dogs. Because we all know that works!!
