Just found this story tucked away at the end of the sky news report about the lady who sadly passed after being struck by a royal protection motorcycle.

Shame, he was quite good in some of the things I have seen him in.

No, it's an actor called Craig Fairbrass. Best known for playing real-life Essex gangster Pat Tate in Rise of the Footsoldier.

Re-registered just to thank Lord Beamish for his input on this thread. Tremendous. I 'get it'. A lot 'get it'. Hilarious when some simply don't.

Fairbrass was also in Eastenders a few years back, and also played a villain alongside Sly Stallone in Cliffhangar.

No, it's Captain Kirk (SS Enterprise) but an easy mistake to make. Don't beat yourself up about it.

RIP Ray. No age at all that
Loved the Rise of the Foot Soldier series. A gritty and hard hitting role played just out as it was - back in the day
