    Remember watching him when I was at school in "on the move" in the late 70's/early 80's. Always liked the guy, whatever he did.
    The bit where he is sat in the back of the car at the end of the Long Good Friday is brilliant, very chilling.

    Yes, mate, he was. It's an illness that took the life of a friend and former work colleague of mine last Summer, at the age of 64.
