The actor Iain Cuthbertson brought his towering, 6ft 41/2in stature and commanding presence to two very different television roles, on both sides of the law, in the 1970s. As Charlie Endell in Budgie, he was the suave Glaswegian gangster on the streets of London's Soho, employing the petty criminal of the title – played by the pop star-turned-actor Adam Faith – to do his dirty work and,...

Adam's post about the recently departed Keith Waterhouse got me reminiscing about one of the TV series the late author co-wrote with Willis Hall, the none more 1970s Budgie starring Adam Faith as Budgie, a West End ducker & diver, and Iain Cuthbertson as his equally shady employer Charlie Endell. Seeking clips of it out on YouTube I stumbled upon the opening sequence of a short-lived Budgie spin-off...

One of the first British stars of my UK youth, along with the earlier, rawer version of Cliff Richard (who was pretty good in Expresso Bongo , gorgeous East-End-Jewish agent performance by Laurence Harvey), not forgetting Tommy Steele, Marty Wilde, Helen Shapiro, Billy Fury etc. Faith was, relatively speaking, a post-Buddy Holly pop intellectual, interviewed by Malcolm Muggeridge on TV about youth...
