I heard this track on the radio this morning, and was reminded of the great video featuring the wonderful Bob Hoskins.

That’s What I Like by Chas and Dave was one of Bradley Wiggin’s Desert Island Discs (Spotify), and it’s a work of feel good cockney genius only rivalled by Reasons to Be Cheerful Pt. 3 by Ian Dury and The Blockheads – which was also on Wiggo’s Desert Island playlist. Enjoy…
A windy London
Blowing dust into my eyes
More tears in the rain
The Long Good Friday is one of my favourite films, and has one of the best endings ever committed to celluloid.
The way in which Bob Hoskins conveys a range of emotions from surprise to anger to realisation and finally acceptance without speaking a word is mesmerising.
A wonderful actor and a huge loss.
