Waz 4,265 Posted September 25, 2022 Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 Yeh R.I.P. what a film. I did hear that he give the cold shoulder to a few folk that were portrayed in the film, think it was the fella Adam Faith played. I only found out earlier today that he died, looked him up and it said 6th of September I think. Anyone know which characters in the film are they giving a nod to in real life, so talking 60s?, I did hear one of the Richardsons was meant to be portrayed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
