A very good episode, which I think I once had on VHS Video, Graham Stark, was good in a small role.
Whenever I see Stanley Lebor (who played Wilson, in The Bengal Tiger), I think of Howard (character played by Stanley Lebor, in the 1980's Sitcom Ever Decreasing Circles).
The car that Kev (Mike Grady), drove, was like something, you would buy from Arthur Daley.
Good locations in this episode, especially the market stalls and the newsagents, there were some Comics, on the shelves (in the newsagents).
Written below, some classic dialogue from The Bengal Tiger.
Indira - I love Kev, I think Kev's wonderful. Terry - Well yeah, I mean er, I can see the attraction. Indira - He dances just like John Travolta. Terry - Shame he don't look like him. Indira - He's beautiful.
Mike Grady (Kev) and Spencer Banks (who played Keith in The Bengal Tiger), both appeared in the early 1970's children's Drama series Tightrope (1972).

A very good episode, which I can remember enjoying watching, when the episode was first shown, in 1994, I thought Perry Fenwick, made a very good Minder villain, I have never been a fan of Rap music, but I very much liked the scenes, featuring the Pirate Radio Station, scenes that make me laugh, every time I see the episode - Go Daley.

Apart from Bob Ferris in The Likely Lads (and the sequel Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads?), two other TV roles, I remember Rodney Bewes, in - Tim Gormond in the Man in a Suitcase episode (already mentioned on this Thread) The Bridge (1967) and Quartermaster Sergeant Stien in the Doctor Who story Resurrection of the Daleks (1984).
Rodney Bewes, also appeared in one of my favourite 1970's films - Spring and Port Wine (1970).
I thought The Likely Lads (1976), was one of the best film versions of a TV Sitcom.
