Hale was a good actress.
|
|
By:
Not mocking rico, just an opinion. Took it back when i realised she'd passed away. You probably wouldn't have known if i hadn't posted it.

TBF Rico has been to plenty of funerals, all online!!!
As it happens Adam might not have done all that well financially from the series, having lunch one day in 1977 when he was singing live, the venue was a Chinese restaurant in Dundee!! |

goergina hale was the brass in an episode of minder with arthurs mate from up north yorky , good actress
|
|
By:
anyone else have the budgie jacket ?
|
|
By:
Would I be right Foyles that in one episode he got a greyhound and took it to a council flat and spent money on feeding the dog better than his girlfriend, seemed to have been done again in Minder later?
Btw I met Ian Cuthbertson a fair few times and once before he hosted a Hogmany show for some TV company in Edinburgh, did not speak like Rab C tbh!! |
|
By:
Great tv series. I have an old one armed bandit like the one he stole from the cricket club in episode 1.
|
|
By:
Big Ian was a very refined and cultured gentleman in real life. Great character actor.
|
|
By:
tbh i cant remember many of the episodes ,watched most if not all but it was a long time ago .will watch on sat tho!
|
|
By:
the old big deal episodes are on youtube well worth a watch if you can.
|
|
By:
Actually, thinking back mac, did he have what we could call a cultured Kelvinside accent in the series and they tried to rough it u a bit?
I remember he was Charles Endel Esquire in the series intro? |
|
By:
In the series Charlie Endlell tried to speak posh and move in upper circles despite making his money from Soho strip clubs and porn shops, lol. Cultured Kelvinside accent would describe the character well CagliariG indeed.
Budgie was the failed small time crook. Good show it was at the time. |
|
By:
Budgie was a strange character by today's standards, almost an antihero. Good looking and charismatic but dishonest, submissive and with the IQ of a pencil sharpener, iirc. 1970s Soho was on point.
|
|
By:
He would have fitted well to the 24/7 brigade here then ramruna? They would be seething tbf as few would reach the exacting standards outside of dishonesty?
|
|
By:
And IQ I should add!!
|
|
By:
Before my time but:
