Good morning everyone

 

Another day of settled weather here.

 

I happened to come across an episode of the John Gregson TV series "Gideon's Way" last night. Standard Briish police procedural series made in 1964 based on the character created by John Creasey (there had been a film version made starring Jack Hawkins). Two criminals had escaped from prison storyline. What made me watch it was recognising who played one of the criminals. Very early in his acting career, wouldn't have been well known at the time, hadn't developed the voice that he became known for but still recognisable. He was to appear in lots of films and also known in television roles. The only clue you need to identify him is that his death scene in one film is possibly the most famous death scene in film even if you've never seen the film, other than Janet Leigh's in Psycho.

 

I hope everyone has a good day

 

 

El Loro
