No wonder there are still so many homeless people, with such a lack of social housing too.<br /><br />Right, off my soapbox now!ann.wilson3942@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01173915355033255391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2540307712237528016.post-59632711711839842292014-09-10T10:05:05.846-07:002014-09-10T10:05:05.846-07:00I'd agree with Mark, "Big Deal" was ...I'd agree with Mark, "Big Deal" was a top series. I've no interest in (or like for) gambling, but the writing/acting (not least yours) was excellent, shame it's not readily available.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03494722764150311186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2540307712237528016.post-85682386055149208912014-09-10T06:43:45.810-07:002014-09-10T06:43:45.810-07:00Growing up in the 80s, you managed to be both the ...Growing up in the 80s, you managed to be both the voices of Mr Benn and King Rollo AND Robbie Box to me, my dad loved Big Deal and when I got a bit older, I became besotted by it thanks to UK Gold rpts (Growing Pains too) I really loved you in Big Deal, such a charismatic performance. Wish they'd released every series rather than just the first; my VHS copies are gathering dust now :(Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14569732807130090838noreply@blogger.com
