Poor old Tony Selby, liked him in Get some in. Mind you haven't seen the program since it was first broadcast.

He was good in the Sweeney as that gangster who gets off for a robbery then, due to Carter and Regan trying to get evidence against him, ends up committing and being arrested for murder.

Had to google who Tony Selby was - an ultimate UK telly "ooooh, that guy". Feels like he was a face I saw on telly every week during my childhood.

Remembered by me as
1)  Corporal Marsh in " Get Some In" ( " My name is Marsh, B-A-S-T-A-R-D , Marsh" , as he introduced himself to his goon platoon) ( aforementioned)
2) A wrong 'un in " The Sweeney" ( Aforementioned)
3) Michael Caine's piss- taking mate in " Alfie".

Yeah he's the Get Some In guy for me too. Along with that other guy who wasn't Robert Lindsey.

Well they came at the King and they didn't miss.

Michael K Williams who portrayed Omar in the Wire appears to have died from an overdose.

Fuck. Watched Boardwalk Empire recently and he was great as Chalky White in that, as well as Omar of course.

Ballad of Ballard Berkley

Well that's just awful. He was a great actor, so charismatic and compelling. I feel really gutted about this too.

Mr Banlon

When I saw 'Chalky White star dies' I was hoping it was Davidson.

I believe I'm right in saying I applauded.

That one who looked like the young Pete Shelley?
( there was a Jarvis Cocker lookalike in it, too. I confirmed this for meself yesterevening when I re- watched the debut episode of this show last night in tribute. Amusingly, there was also an actor playing a corporal in it- who manages to get himself transferred to Hong Kong instead of Marsh- who looked exactly like a young Terry Jones).

Aye him, David Jansen apparently. Amazingly he played the young lad that Ringo talks to when he's having his depressed walk by the canal in A Hard Day's Night.

Mr Banlon

A friend of a friend is the spit of David Jansen. When we've been out, and it's his turn to buy a round of drinks I always say : "I think it's your round Mark."
I don't really know him that well.

No Sir, I Can't Boogie ( or do anything else for that matter): Maria Mendiola, one half of the top disco ladies duo Baccara has left us at the age of 69.

Blue Jam

Read the news about Maria Mendiola on the Scotland section of BBC News. I approve of this being categorised as Scottish news and so would she, probably.

I loved him so much.

Why did the man throw his clock out of the window?

"Last name, Cancer. First name, Bowel!" "I'm gonna fuck uncle John's wife!"
