My mum loved him in "Callan". I used to watch that too when I was a little kid. Very haunting theme music.
RIP.

Late I know, but as someone who was both moved and haunted by the Wicker Man, I too have to acknowledge the passing of Sgt Howie, aka Edward Woodward. In many respects I think his reputation as an actor was partially demeaned by the indifferent TV work he did along the way - (excepting the brilliant "Callan" of course). Oh well, guess we all have to eat Woodward was a good friend of Sir Laurence Olivier, who used to tease him that his name sounded like a fart in a bathtub.. ;D Summer is a coming in..  |
