You only have to play "Dead end street" to realize how the Kinks are relevant through to today. That's Quality, that's Talent. I can imagine every time Paul McCartney and writers of his ilk hear Waterloo Sunset wishes they'd wrote that. The Kinks - more gritty, accurate than most of their time and beyond.

Brilliant series then - Callan, Public Eye, Harry Palmer, Danger Man et al. Not the low grade over blown hero stuff you get now. A similar character in the USA filmed later in the mid 70s was Harry O (David Janssen. I wonder if the makers of that programme had watched Alfred Burke as Frank Marker ?

I was a bit in love with him to be honest! A great actor.

Oh dear.....

I think the thin glass comment in the bar with the clicking of the fingers shows that Carter in a funny way thinks he's better then everyone yet he laughs just like everyone when the singer gets into a fight with another lady. He is ultimately the same as the other Gangsters...even if he thinks he has morality .

Frank may have been greater in death than in life

Great film top shelf cain is excellent

He doesn’t give a flying F 😂

pish

terrible bs list / not serious.

The title for this video should have been, "The 10 British Guitarist I Like." And the "I" being the guy that made this buttnugget.

Do you really like music? What a shit top ten...

Fair enough, it's someone's opinion..dunno what world they're living in though.

I really dislike the Talking Pictures 'trigger' warnings before every bally programme. It really dies highlight how ridiculously 'woke' everything now is. The current restrictions on speech are totalitarian. The other day, I watched an episode of 'Budgie' which actually blanked out a word altogether. Adam Faith's lips moved but we did not hear the word. I knew exactly what he had said. We are not children. This is what the BBC does! Unacceptable.

JIMMY PAGE ????????😳

Love that the list isn’t made up of the usual blues thieves.

what a load of utter crap

Hahaha This list is pure comedy....

Not even close.

Plus John Squire, Bernard Butler… The list of British greats goes on for a long while!

It's great to see a list without the usual and expected blues-based traditional guitar players.

A list without Gilmour, May and Beck (and that obscure guy Clapton) is a joke But uou have a Blur guy XD

Jeff Beck, David Gilmour, Pete Townshend, Brian May, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, George Harrison, Richie Blackmore, Peter Green, The Edge, Mark Knopfler, where are you?

No Jimmy Page, Clapton or Beck?

So, no great British guitar players before 1975?

I'm still aloud to laugh at what I want to laugh at. Are they going to ban the "Carry On..." films now. There's talk about Blu-ray releases of The Rank Organisation films and I don't think anything will be cut out. Cut out the kind of humour that the "Carry On..." films are well-known for and you wouldn't have anything left.

An absolute nugget this movie is .

this show is challenging my religious views. i know comedy is about taking the piss out of society's lack of common understanding but i can imagine myself feeling a bit uncomfortable watching this act with some of my friends and relations.

its like when you are a kid shoot em ups and westerns and war and mafia movies were only fiction like toy guns. which one knew were only fun to play with. like when i bought a pack of fags for my dad at age 5 i was not going to take up the habit when i was just on an errand and help myself to one on a sunday morning neither did the shop keeper or anyone else in the late 50's.makes one think what happened to common sense or normality

Effectively Alfie played himself

There is one thing Ricky won’t joke about and that’s Muslims and Islam whereas Billy Connolly did.

All time favourite film. Next time you watch it lookout for the second old fella taking a sup of beer in bar scene at the beginning , he has five fingers instead of four.

I only came across your video by chance, I’m going to rewatch the whole film now! Thanks

Top film

Bloody-brilliant-cheeky bastard that he is,,,,righty-right on Ricky, bravo! shag'n wanker!

super duper character never be another person also never be another band like the stones

It is a classic, and not just because of our shared surname. But i would like to add to the mix Withnail &I , sexy beast, performance, If...., dead man's shoes , the Ipcress file , all brilliant films

Michael Caine was simply excellent in this picture, one of his very best performances. I could not imagine anyone doing a better job than he did on this.

Let's just say it out loud.....Michael Caine is Britain's greatest movie actor. There are a few that come close, but he's the BEST.. .one more thing, if he had been offered the role of James Bond, he would have made it HIS OWN

60's child here, I grew up on these films plus hammer horror with Peter cushing and Christopher Lee. My favourite carry-on film was, unsurprisingly, carry-on screaming, with the hypnotic fenella fielding, my dad knew her.

This has been my favourite film of all time for decades. Absolutely brilliant, superbly stylish but down to earth and believable. A gangster film and a true art film.

Awesome bloke. Great laugh.

Love it RG thanks for making me laugh my fucking arse off, again 😅😂🤣😂🤣💥

Ray is the GOAT. He’s John, Paul and George Martin rolled into one. The Beatles can’t touch the kinks catalog and any of you Beatles fanatics out there who think they can are obviously lazy listeners

My favourite video s of all time never get tired of watching Alfred Burke best actor of all time thanks Alfred

I remember the original ABC series in 1965

What a shame only a few episodes of the ABC years exist. Such a well acted consistently good class series. No loony plots of today, incessant music, wobbly arty farty camera work and predictable formulaic acting. Will never be repeated.

my dad's best friend claimed that he never watched ITV, and my girlfriend's family in the 70s took the radio time but not the tv times as they "never watched ITV".

Show me a better Keith song than Before they make me run
