Pete? Is someone having a laugh or just being thick, probably the latter knowing Kay Burley
Pete Waterman is a record producer/songwriter. To my knowledge he never appeared in Minder, or The Sweeney. And is still alive. Although he is around the same age as Dennis.

The only thing wrong with The Irishman is it should have been made a decade or so earlier or like Goodfellas they should have used young actors for the early days scenes.
That one gripe aside it stands alongside The Godfather and just edges Goodfellas and Casino.
Depeche Mode's Keyboardist ANDY FLETCHER has sadly passed away at just 60 years old
One of my favourite 80's bands....... I was only listening to them the other day after recording the Paris Leg of their Exciter Tour from 2001 on SKY Arts (Ch. 130)
Lester Piggott. To my mind, the greatest jockey ever.
Famously, er, careful with money.
One day a stable lad had turned out a horse immaculately, and it had just won a big race. While the crowd are cheering, stable lad speaks into Piggott's ear, and asks for a £5 bonus for his work on the horse.
Piggott claimed he couldn't hear, so stable lad went round to the other ear. And asked for a £10 bonus. The reply?
"Go back to the first ear. The first ear was cheaper."

I remember one from my youth. A boys junior school on a trip to Newmarket races. On arrival lots of hands shot up with a view to visiting The Gents. A female teacher was in charge. So she escorted them in to the toilets. She peers over one of the urinals, accidentally of course. She exclaims "My goodness you are a big boy, whats your name?" Lester Piggot Miss.

Do enjoy the gangster films, loved Pesci in Casino too. Not seen the latest one with him in it as it's 3 hours or so long.
Plays a great gangster
I think Pesci was the outstanding actor in Goodfellas although I agree with Stokie that he was also great in Home Alone.
Watch Pesci in "The Irishman". Superb.
Not heard of that but will give it a watch.

It's another Scorcese masterpiece & includes several actors from Goodfellas, most prominently DeNiro. Add in a great performance by Pacino too.
Massive cast.
