Sorry to disappoint but no he's no dead.

Biggest **** ever though, and he can shove his betting company up his ******* arse.

Also what's wrong with his voice? He didn't sound like that before sounding like a baàaaaad, trendy saaaarf lunnnnduuunnnnn gaaaaangstarrrrr was trendy.

Have you never seen S.c.u.m, which came out in 1979?

Edit - The word filter on this board is ridiculous.

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 7:52 pm**

I've seen him on Minder.

His voice used to be squeeky.

Fraud of the highest order. File under Danny Dyer

Hadn’t RW always talked like a cockerny gangster? Even as HenryVIII ,Always found him very watchable and been in some very tidy films over the yrs.Wasnt he a top amateur boxer? Or am I thinking of some other old school Londoner ?

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 8:07 pm**

Jimmy's biker mate in Quadrophenia was the first time I'd come across him. Think he was a boxer.

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 8:09 pm**

Actors are by definition frauds but he is amongst the worst

Top Geezer is Ray

Sexy Beast was superb as was ****.

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 8:26 pm**

Bloody hell he won 80 out of 88 fights as an amateur ( care of wiki) so no mug in a row I’d imagine .
Nil by mouth a good film, he was also in a cracking Brit robbery film with Robert Carlisle they robbed a cash counting warehouse though name escapes me.

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 8:36 pm**

Naaah, e's aawight is Way. has played some good parts in some good films. ar finks e's enertayerning.

Maybe I'd like him more if the government got round to banning gambling adverts on the telly.

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 8:57 pm**

Does he also sell vaaaaaaaaaaaans?

The film with Robert Carlisle is called"Face".Good film.

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 9:07 pm**

I bet you wouldn't say it to his face.

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 9:23 pm**

Fills a gap in the acting industry and has done well for himself out of it.

If it wasn't him it would be some other cockney bloke you'd be disliking.

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 9:27 pm**

Legend!

Nowhere near South London, he is an Eastender and ex England International at Amatuer Boxing.

All round top bloke and very underrated as an actor.

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 10:03 pm**

Don't think he's underrated in those bet 365 ads

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 10:15 pm**

No. What I mean is 'I bet you wouldn't say it to his face'.

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 10:40 pm**

Think his first film was "****" where had played some kind of hard nut in a Borstal. This would be early mid 1970's.

What is it against the betting ads?

He's not forcing you to part with your money.

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 10:49 pm**

Also S c u m was an absolute classic.

Where's your tool?

No but unfortunately my £100 a month sky billl is forcing me to listen to him every 10 seconds when I watch a football match

Bizarre, actor criticised for changing acent.

Carlin sorted them bullies out true to life portrayal ..of Borstal life.Hindley 1971 was a powder keg most days!

Posted: **Tue Jan 23, 2018 11:56 pm**

I have liked him over the years and he was excellent in S C U M.

Posted: **Wed Jan 24, 2018 12:00 am**

Strange thread indeed
Always seemed a genuine bloke to me. Loves his football.
Sexy Beast and S-cum both very good films.

By the way it's WINSTONE!

You need to get onto Sky and hand in your 30 day notice period. They will reduce that bill by about £40 a month in a (to keep the cockney theme) breff

The recent film version of The Sweeney with Ray Winston was probably one of the worse British films I think I’ve ever seen. Dick Van Dyke was a much better cockney.

Posted: **Wed Jan 24, 2018 8:49 am**

bet 365. good site. give you loads of free spins. nothing wrong with Winston. i like the type of films he is in

Posted: **Wed Jan 24, 2018 9:33 am**

Nowt wrong with Ray. You ran B wing alright, but foh me, I give the orders. You'll get yer perks, bat I'm va daddy

Posted: **Wed Jan 24, 2018 9:34 am**

Professional cockney.

The worst sort.

Posted: **Wed Jan 24, 2018 11:14 am**

He's been around for decades has Ray. Some brilliant acting rolls.
He also voiced Zoony in Fireball XL5.

Posted: **Wed Jan 24, 2018 11:37 am**

Weird target to go for, when there are so many deserving others.

- because he does a few adverts?

He is one of our finest British actors...highly regarded.

Maybe it's an East London, West Ham United thing..?

Posted: **Wed Jan 24, 2018 12:15 pm**

I don't mind him, but I do find his betting ads annoying. I find all betting ads annoying.

Also, I'd like to see a broadcasting watershed brought in for betting ads. I most certainly don't want to ban online betting, I participate myself, but let's keep it for adults.

Posted: **Wed Jan 24, 2018 12:24 pm**

I genuinely doubt it's Ray's fault that whatever "focus group" has discovered that their target audience react well to "gruff cockney chap character".

Whoever found this out must have made a tonne of money though - he must have done at least a handful of advertisements shouting at men and telling us how to spend our money.

"Oi! Yooooo! 'Av a butchers at this and spend yar monaaay on it!"

Posted: **Wed Jan 24, 2018 12:28 pm**

I don't think it should be advertised on TV at all.
Massive growing problem in society and the betting industry should not be assisted by advertising.

I can't remember the betting firms advertising anywhere near as much on TV (if at all) when they did not have all this casino and online betting.

Bookmakers always made a fortune but in recent years they have seen new cash cows in online gambling and these ridiculous machines they have in their shops....destroying people's lives.

Posted: **Wed Jan 24, 2018 12:29 pm**

I really like him. I remember him being extremely defensive of our club when Coyle left. Said on BBC 5 Live that Coyle had raped Burnley and the presenter having to apologise on his behalf as he wouldn't because he thought as ill of Coyle as us clarets.

Posted: **Wed Jan 24, 2018 12:51 pm**

Typical of modern celebrity culture. He's probably seen as a national treasure now and asked his opinion on everything.

Just appreciate him for his film work and switch the rest off.
