A cockney actor who actually has his East End accent in real life, because he comes from Hackney.
Generally plays the tough man, but can also portray quite a bit of character depth in his performances due to excellent acting abilities.
Was first noted for his starring role in a violent 1979 film called 'Scum', however his finest performance is surely in 'Nil by Mouth' where he plays a violent father living in a South London council flat, generally calling anyone he meets a cunt.
Away from the screen is a
big West Ham
United fan and one time spokesman for
Kellogg's cereal.
Ray Winstone is a
geezer's geezer, who brings out the Cockney in all of us.
Rub-a-dub,
brown bread etc.
