I've wondered what happened to Ken also......thought he was great in 'Sweeney 2', and 'Straw dogs', just checked IMDB and nothing since '99, though I recall just a few years ago when 'Straw dogs' was about to be released on DVD he was interviewed sitting in a Pub talking about the Movie, and I recall him saying that he was RADA trained.

This on Ken's IMDB page in the 'forum' section ....

"I'd love to know where IMDB got the year of birth 1948 from. I have much of Ken's seventies output on DVD including Straw Dogs (1971) Deadly Strangers (1974) and Sweeney 2 (1977) and certainly in the latter two he appears to be aged around forty, not twenty five! Some private investigation reveals a more plausible birth date of December 1935, which would fit with his last TV appearance in 1999 and the retirement age of 65."

Cool

He can't be that old surely ? He's very fresh faced in Straw Dogs so I think 1948 sounds about right. He seems to have disappeared without a trace. On the IMDB forum there's also a message saying that he lives a quiet life in London, but that was written in 2004. I'd love to know which pub he drinks in , I would gladly buy him a few of his favourite tipples.
What a dude !

Ken is fit and well and as dapper as ever. He was last seen in The Duke of Hamilton pub in Hampstead a couple of weeks ago, watching Scotland play rugby and giving several renditions of "Flower of Scotland" He pops in every couple of months.

Excellent news! If you see him again tell he is fondly thought of by many people.
