Across changing tastes and formats, Ray Burdis has stayed a British actor with the kind of filmography that takes a while to scroll through. Among the rest of the work, 'Scum' stands out. The trail of credits goes back as far as 1972. Drama keeps coming back on the credit list. There are 31 entries on the filmography, most of them supporting work in other people's stories. Among all the titles, 'Gandhi' is the one that reached the widest audience.
