Always thought his character in The Equaliser was a bit to smarmy, liked the Jag though.

Volvo back as my main squeeze, more boost and some interior goodies on the way.

The Equalizer was almost entirely responsible for my love of Jags, I always call Series III equalizer shape and most people know what you're on about. RIP Edward Woodward Hope someone reruns The Equalizer

Sad to see another great shuffle off; he was one of the only people I can think of who exuded menace by just walking into a room. Quiet and dangerous..... RIP...

All the radio reports go on about is The Wicor Man and Equaliser. For me Callan was the best thing he ever did, both the film and the TV Series. Hopefully cable TV will re-run it.

Ive got the Callan dvd. Think i got it in the pound shop. Its a good film. Think that shows the grimmy world that spies and hitmen would live in, more than the glitzty world that James Bond floats around in.
I liked Common as muck. Even though my brothers a bin lorry driver and I hate him. :/
