With The Joint Deaths of Iain Cuthbertson and Keith Waterhouse This Week...


Recommended Posts

...thats pretty much the final curtain drawn of all the major figures behind the popular "Budgie" Series.


Budgie starred former popstar Adam Faith with Iain Cuthbertson as "Charlie Endell"and was produced by ITV company London Weekend Television and broadcast on the ITV network between 1971 and 1972.


The series was created by Keith Waterhouse and Willis Hall . The show was produced by Verity Lambert.


First Adam Faith and Willis Hall went, then Verity then, this week, both Keith and Iain in a cruel double blow to the Entertainment Industry.


"You DISGUST me Budgie Boy!!"..Charlie Endell,Glaswegian gangster....

I think I speak for everyone in saying that we wouldn't want it any other way.


No, you are right bbw.


"bob" is one of the gang.


Let his insults flow like The River Tiber..or Ted's enchanting poetry....

    • I completely agree with you . Its as if they have their foot in the door and are just pushing and pushing. It's ridiculous. It's not the right space. they clearly do not give any regard to the environment or they would move it.  
    • There's a great badminton club at the Harris girls academy. It runs Friday from 5.30 to 6.45. for more experienced players, they have sessions on Wednesday and Friday, too but that's subject to skill levels 
    • There seem to be all sorts of blocks for this event being mounted on the Common, one is that it was 'designed especially' for the current site, though the organisers seem to have had absolutely no problem rejigging their plans to the original site footprint to expand the event to what we had last year- which I think really imposed on a large part of the park and spoilt the feel. I would suggest pressing very hard for relocation to the Common ( also closer to transport links). There must be a way, surely? If not, then wholesale relocation to a more suitable venue. I just do not think the park should be subjected to a festival-goer footfall of 60,000 plus over the summer.
    • I absolutely will. Fed up of property developments that are funded from offshore investors and price out local people. Fed up of the demise of social rents and the growing crisis of families in bed and breakfast. Fed up of young people being unable to save deposits, start families and generally have the same security of tenure that previous generations had. So yes, I will drill down into the financing, affordability, where the properties aer being advertised for sale, and how many are genuinely for social rent. Otherwise, no opposition to redeveloping that site in that way.
