East Kent Jag II Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 According to an obituary I've just been reading in "The Telegraph" Maurice Roeves, the "hard man" actor who died last week aged 83, was a lifelong Jags fan. Although born in Sunderland, he was brought up in Partick, and went to Church St Primary School. The article went on to say that he was a lifelong Jags fan. Rest in peace, Maurice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaggy Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 There was an obituary on BBC but they never mentioned the Jags fan part. He played some good parts, especially Vincent in Tutti Frutti and God in The Acid House Granton Star Cause story. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cuddly Toi Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 Many years ago I was in a wee bookshop in Byres Road and he was in front of me in the queue to get Xmas Calendars He had a right go at them for having piles of Old Firm calendars and no Partick Thistle ones We then had a long chat about Thistle out on the pavement. He didn't get to many games but he knew plenty about our results 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlgarveJag Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 Always sad to lose one of the Jaggy family. Familiar with a lot of his work but amazed to see just how prolific he was on stage and screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
