Edward Woodard passes away at 79. Not entirely non-bike related - after all, Edward did ride a bike in his classic film "The Wicker Man".
That film, along with the searing "Breaker Morant", and his portrayal of a hard-nosed yet sometimes reluctant servant of 'The Section' in 'Callan' (in which he virtually invented the 'complex hard-man' TV serial genre) endeared me to him over the years. To this day I still recall the classic 'light-bulb' intro and hypnotic theme score of Callan, which I sneakily try and sit-up to watch as a younger lad way back.
So, thanks Edward, and cheers. You shot straight...and never made a mess of it!
