Author,actor lawyer,television and film personality in the Scotland Yard B movies.(often better than the main feature)He had the best voice I have ever heard and watch the films to hear him.I looked him up online and was amused that one of the names he went under was Brent Wood. Anyone remember him.

I recall his introductions to a crime series which featured most of the top line British actors of the 1950/60s. Plenty of the "it's fair cop" and "alright, I'll come quietly" lines to be heard. I seem to recall the criminal were either dastardly upper class criminals or cheeky-chirpy cockney half-wits. Middle England only wore white hats.

With a few little twists they were true stories.Lots of murders in big houses.The outside scenes and cars are a joy.All those that spoke as working class,in real life had cut crystal accents.

Just love this play on words. Some real good ones there. I avoided the old chestnut Rick O’Shea. It was a glancing thought though. You realise I’m going to be thinking about this all evening now.

Phew. I thought that this was another ‘promising youngster’ with a silly name that had been associated with the club.

I was unwell and in pain last night.I was at times delirious and could not stop thinking of that fly on the screen Bas posted some time ago.I am still in bed but feeling better,but still can't get that wretched screen fly out of my mind.
