Colin Welland.

[Leekbrookgull]

Gritty actor. R-i-P.

 

[Official Old Man]

My memory of him is ZCars (I must be getting old). Didn't realize he wrote the screen play for Chariots of Fire. Kind of actor who would appear in most cop shows in the 70's (Sweeney etc) in a similar way that soap stars appear in casualty these days.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

I liked him in Z cars.

Great in the film Kes.

 

[Crispy Ambulance]

Or in his case, going....

Sorry I have obviously been reading too much E.J.Thribb.

 

[Monkey Man]

Liked him in that ITV sitcom Cowboys. Never guessed at the time he was an accomplished writer. Just assumed he was a jobbing actor.
