Just sat idly speculating and clock watching and just had a thought. Darius said he had passports for them both but where would they have got pictures?! Obviously I know they wouldn't need to be good enough to pass normal passport checks but good enough to fool someone checking it (ie white background, not smiling etc). How did they even know what TLR would look like after he cut his hair!

Your hair doesn't have to be the same as your passport photo.

slide to 1.50 on this clip from Get Carter to see the resemblance of Ashley Cowgill to his Dad

Always had a fancy for Alun Armstrong . . . <sigh>

Leftoverssandwich · 05/02/2023 15:33

Joe Armstrong is in Gentleman Jack too and looks even more like his dad there as he’s older and, um, broader.

Right, DC swimming lesson done!
Just waiting for Ocado delivery then I’ll be in full on countdown mode, armed with snacks.

Hmmm… If we’re speculating Blondes, I’m going to say -

Beetroot Man, with Beetroot knife, in the billiards room! 😂

You'll need a nice sit down and a huge mug of tea in front of the telly then. Smile

Show quote history

Just got back now, a quick granny nap and I should be good to go 🙏

TwoMonthsOff · 05/02/2023 16:45

@Emotionalsupportviper handsome chap in his younger day and Joe Is too.
I know we take after our parents but their resemblance is uncanny I think

@Leftoverssandwich absolutely and he’s such a great character actor, we need more Joe on our screens

Aloneonprecipice · 05/02/2023 16:46

Just popping in to say... I love this. You all with all your theories and sense of humour has made me feel so good. A very welcome change from my mental state spiralling downhill yesterday.

I have found my people.

AntonDuPig · 05/02/2023 16:52

Have you double checked your TV is all set up and ready to go?!

@Aloneonprecipice

Welcome to the fold! Hope you’re ok x

That is just uncanny. He literally looks exactly the same.

Poor ole Ashley. If only he hadn't blabbed I'd have loved to see the Cowgills featuring in series 2 and 3 Sad.

Rhondaa · 05/02/2023 16:55

I hope Beetroot Man and Alison Garrs 'appen across one another. Or is he a bit old, still a good match I reckon.

Also hope Faisal's gossipy dd is horrified by curtain twitchers when her own df is hauled away by the rozzers.

TwoMonthsOff · 05/02/2023 16:59

@Janiie i know right ? They are exactly the same only Joe has really greeny/blue eyes, I will google his mum
I miss him so much too - for some reason I adored watching Ashley everything he did or said, facial expression, his walk, everything was perfect

'for some reason I adored watching Ashley everything he did or said, facial expression, his walk, everything was perfect'

Yes sadly a wasted character imo. He should've just gone immediately into a secret hideaway shouldn't he. I know harking back to series 1 is a bit desperate still there's only so many times we can ponder on who it's curtains for tonight.

It’s far easier to get a fake passport than we’d all like to think, and the photo wouldn’t be a barrier. Ten minutes on the dark web would show that!

@XanaduKira
The new Bank Holiday in Ireland is in honour of Bridget ( Saint or a pagan festival Imbolc). Honouring too all those who worked hard for others during Covid and remembering those who died during Covid.

Oh wow, that's fab! Thanks for replying & enjoy your day off!

TwoMonthsOff · 05/02/2023 17:14

@JaneJeffer
just did a rewatch and Dawn French is spot on 🤣 now I’ve got the song stuck in my head ….’how about yoooooou’

need to watch Get Carter again to see Alf Roberts thrown off a multi storey car park !

Rhondaa · 05/02/2023 17:18

'need to watch Get Carter again to see Alf Roberts thrown off a multi storey car park !'

What? Not Alf that's terrible! not an easy job either as he wasn't of slight build. Was he the one who said 'I say I say' a lot or am I mixing him up?

TwoMonthsOff · 05/02/2023 17:21

@Janiie i think that was the bloke with the bulgy eyes he was a butcher ……and had a nephew ‘son/grandson called Ashley

Alf Roberts was a horrible corrupt councillor in Get Carter

one of the most famous quotes from the film is (from Michael Caine to Alf Roberts)

‘You're a big man, but you're in bad shape. With me it's a full time job. Now behave yourself.’

TwoMonthsOff · 05/02/2023 17:22

skip to 0.46

BIWI · 05/02/2023 17:23

Photos for a passport wouldn't be a problem. TLR had his little phone/someone else in the prison would also have had a phone to take a photo and send to Darius (someone else on the outside). Ryan will have his Facebook page, I imagine, with photos. (Also, am aware that this is a story/not true! Grin)
