Aa'm back again. The reason - " When The Boat Comes In" - I never watched the full series due to work when it was first broadcast, and these past 2 weeks I have found that the series is being shown on the Freeview Drama Channel on a Saturday afternoon, at 1p.m. (3-4 episodes together) I am realising that it was a classic.
Why I am posting here is - ...... Jean Heywood, born in Blyth, watching her reminds me of my Grandmother to a 'T'. Same mannerisms, voice, intonations, and the look in the eyes.
I believe Jean is still alive. It would be out of this world is someone could post in here details of her family, history, etc. Hope someone comes up with the facts.
As regards the father, Bill Seaton, another great actor. My wife reckons that I sound like him when I am in a fettle and lose my temper. [I do not have a moustache, though.]
