I loved Minder back in the day. I haven't watched it since Waterman admitted punching Rula Lenska.

I hear Kay Burley announced it was Pete Waterman that died.
We should be so lucky...

With the roles Dennis played, it's easy to mistake him for a hitman.

little known fact. He used to be known as Dennis Iceman until he met John Thaw.
