I first remember him as a then unknown actor in a BBC series to encourage adult literacy called "On The Move", always at his best
playing characters that were always a little out of their depth the picture that he will be most remembered for is "The Long Good
Friday" in which he was absolutely perfect as the east end gangster who's empire crumbled over the course of a week.

Shame
Indeed 71 is no age nowadays. Oddly my favourite film of his is who framed Roger Rabbit, he played that part superbly.
Life moves pretty fast, if you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I remember seeing him in that "On the Move" series. Also he starred in an early Richard Gere movie, name of which is lost in the depths of
my subconcious, playing a South American police chief to Gere's hooker-servicing doctor. So long ago, when Gere was very dark-haired!
