I have a confession - when nothing was forthcoming I switched over to the footy. No patience!

Well he said he'd do the part justice and I don't doubt that he did from what I saw. Must have been quite unsettling viewing knowing that Neil was speaking for himself as well as his character, and with his experience mirroring your own.

You know in the photo of Neil and a few others you posted earlier? Is that Barry Venison on the right? h:

I recognise the bloke in the middle from Peep Show

Check out tonight's second episode on now on ITV1. The fella who plays the copper looks UNCANNILY like Stevie G. In fact, if they ever did a drama series about him this fella would have to play him. The resemblance is amazing!

Funny you should say that rushie, last week when he appeared on screen me other half straight away said "That's whatjisface!! Steven Gerrard!!!" My response was to burst out laughing

The actor's called Jamie Draven who's a Manc from Wythenshawe. Still can't believe how much he looks like Gerrard!

Including Mike Dixon (Paul Byatt) who KenDoddsDadsDogsDead was asking where he'd disappeared to the other day...

I saw John McArdle down at Wembley for the 1987 Littlewoods Cup Final against Arsenal. He was legless that day as well!

Boom tish!

And just to square the circle, Mike Dixon sat right in front of me at a game v Man City in about '92. Dean saunders scored. It wasn't very good.
