luck tv series

I think Luck on Sunday will be back when the HK season starts up again.

Big Deal was superb

No, only joking.

Yeah, I did see a couple of episodes, looked good, but not sure how it would appeal to a non-racing fan.

Going a back a bit there, JD, 1980s BBC1?

Big Deal is a British comedy-drama television series originally broadcast by the BBC between 1984 and 1986. The series was created and written by Geoff McQueen, who created several other major television series including Give Us a Break, Stay Lucky, and The Bill.
Starring Ray Brooks, Sharon Duce and Lisa Geoghan, the series concentrated on the ups and downs of small-time London gambler Robbie Box (played by Brooks) and the effect that his poker addiction has on his long suffering girlfriend Jan Oliver (Duce) and her daughter Debby (Geoghan).
The theme music was by Bucks Fizz member Bobby G.[1]
Big Deal (series one) was released on DVD on 24 July 2006

Just noticed the writer also done the bill, give us a break and stay lucky.

Think will give stay lucky and give us a break a look as well

Tucker's Luck, anyone?

Grange Hill spin off wasnt it

It was.

House Of Cards crossed my mind but that was early 90s

I'd forgotten all about "The Charmer" but a good series.

Minder a shocking omission, or is that more 70's?

Tales of the unexpected.

started 1970s, JD

tales of the unexpected is a good call but started 1979

Any truth in the rumours they're remaking Auf Wiedersehn with Wullie taking over from Jimmy Nail?

remember the scene when he's running to the portaloo, telling to people to get out the way cuz he'd had a vindaloo  last night

Seemingly Jimmy was raging at the comparison

^^

Which forumite would be Moxey iyo?

not sure, any scouse arsonists on here?

Not scouse, but I'll go for King Of Dubai/Richie Burnett.

I'll have Still Learning as Neville, so that's 3 sorted.

9. The Gentle Touch

Prepared83 = Wayne

Domino14 = Barry

What was that American series staring Dustin Hoffman,it was all set on a race track Hoffman was a bit of a gangster. only a very small one though.
