      Frank Harper=great actor,diamond geezer-simple as-being a 61 year old Chelsea man from Peckham i remember the film wiv denzil washington,was a bloody good film although his london accent was a bit ropey but try and forget that and enjoy the film,and by the way always thought (my favourite actor in my favourite film=Michael Caine in Get Carter-the 1971 on3 not that crap0y re-make wiv stallone,that was a f*****g comedy!hahaha) is a Chelsea fan like me,says it in his biog. on utube...well done Terry and top man Frank,cgeers all the best,Piers a.k.a. Chopper p.s. i know Piers is a posh name but mum and dad were proper petrolheads so i was named after a very young brilliaht charismatic English racing driver called Piers Courage,cheers👍👍😀😀

    I think I first noticed Frank Harper in a TV comedy about a boy band in which he played the band manager. James Corden was one of the members of the boy band, and Olive from On The Buses played Frank's gypsy mother, who lived in a traveller camp. The best line I can remember him delivering was "She doesn't tell fortunes and sell lucky heather. She sells scrap tin and amphetamines."

      @@mcmondo yeah it had a real impact on me early 20s , got obsessed with it was doing a lot of gear and watched it either on ecstasy, speed or coming down mid week... Actually saw it after dead mans shoes which is also great but something about room for Romeo brass that I was more drawn to even though dead man shoes is probably a " Better" Film... Those 2 were def Meadows best work I think, paddy best performance Romeo brass and first film he ever did, raw, talent... Always thought Morrell was the coolest dweeb to ever exist... So many great lines... Andrew Sims was great as well as, was Frank... Go dark On me now.. I wonder what would of become of Morrell!! He was def capable of a, massacre haha

    One of the best podcasts yet.. Smithfields was like another world, worked in the city mid 80s 90s on night shifts, used to go there at 06:00 for breakfast inside the market... the language and banter was off the scale.. took my posh boss there one morning ... I think he felt really intimidated although there was no problem.. he had never seen or heard anything like it..

      @@terrystone743Sir Turbo … another banging episode! I didn't even get up for a pee!! 🤣 Is Franks Dad still around? ‘Coz if he was a Millwall player any time in the 50's he will know my Dad Pete Collins (semi-pro) who was a lifelong supporter of Millwall (so much so the flowers on his grave are blue & white) and played for quite a number of London teams and his best mate was Mel Hopkins (pro for Spurs) He even played for West Ham! (True story!!! No BS) My Dad would have been 90 in 3 days time, so by my maths I reckon that's around the age Frank's Dad would be? We moved from SE16 Rotherhithe in 1975/6, Dad was a Bermondsey / Southwark boy through and through, never missed a Millwall game unless he was playing elsewhere … curious to know if Franks Dad would remember him.
