Let's have it right.......Frank Harper's got a fantastic voice for the roles he plays. Fantastic actor🔥

@TryptamineSparkKs Жыл бұрын

He has to be a voice actor for some character in the next GTA-game. Would be an awesome "easter egg". Anyone who's seen his films would recognise him instantly, he can talk proper smack that's for sure! :D

Great Actor, whilst the middle class, ex private school British media looks down on Geezer movies millions of us watch and love them. Frank is top of the tree in this genre.

Lock Stock, Room For Romeo Brass, Football Factory, Rise of The Footsoldier. Prominent roles in a few of my favourite British films. Lesser but memorable all the same roles in Kevin and Perry, This is England. Directed one of my favourite shlocky geezer films ever in St George’s Day. All round legend of British film

@@jordancampbell6775 yeah but I’d guess that they weren’t working on that film at the same time. Not exactly in the same scene are they. Who knows they may know each-other they may not. Personally I think McFadden is pretty private outside of EE. He’s never been in the publics eye has he.

@petyrbaelish1718 9 ай бұрын

Would have been great a decade or two ago when they were in their 30's or 40's. Now they're both old men in their 60's and they don't have the same kind of intimidation or fear factor. Phil Mitchell especially is a washed up old man nowadays, whereas he was a brutal hard man 20 years ago.

I`ll always remember when I was 16 yrs old, back in 2000, looking through the video section in W H Smith(yes, is was THAT long ago!) in Bluewater shopping centre. Didn`t take much notice of a man next to me with his two young daughters, one of which was in a pram, doing the same. Until I heard him say to one "which one d`ya want then?" in a very distinctive voice I recognised from Lock, Stock. Only looked round to see Frank Harper standing there! Because I was probably standing there gauping at him, he did give me a bit of a look 😂 As much as I wanted to, I didn`t bother him for an autograph. But I couldn`t wait to tell my mates I just ran into Dog from Lock, Stock in Bluewater!!

@louiem2 10 ай бұрын

Fascinating that he didn't get all the hype about Lock Stock at the time and it took him 4 years to fully appreciate
