John Thaw: One of Britains Best
21 March 2011
Whilst I can see the point of a previous comment: "Best Loved" is a tag that is used far too often, John thaw will always have a place in my heart. He brought so much character to many of his roles......Again, I must agree with the previous comment: The Sweeney for me was awful, way over the top...or maybe it just hasn't aged well. He was most generous in that he insisted Denis Waterman was given more "lines" as he acknowledged his contribution. Being out of the UK I was a late-comer to Kavanagh QC, & I initially watched it with some reluctance, however,I was converted, the stories were always first-rate, with many amusing-side plots, usually involving the hapless Jeremy. I guess I will continue to watch anything with John Thaw in....if only to remember how much pleasure he gave to millions....world-wide. Along with Pete Postlethwaite: He was truly one of Britains best actors. (And not a Hollywood Blockbuster between them.)
