Aww. I remember him first as Yosser, best as Theoden, but most memorably in Shirley Valentine.

Remember him only as Theoden, saddled with the horrible line "no parent should have to bury their child", which he managed to trot out without wincing.

I remember him only as Yosser. In 1982 the series was a huge shock. That was in my O-level year, and I recall how much it was talked about in school.

I always seem to confuse him with Bernard Cribbens! But I do recall the original Play for Today “The Blackstuff”. I enjoye£ that a lot, but never took to the later series.
