Liverpudlian actor Tom Georgeson was best known for his roles in several groundbreaking TV dramas including Between the Lines and Boys from the Blackstuff, Scully and G.B.H. - the last three all penned by Alan Bleasdale. For film fans he was perhaps best remembered for his role as crook George Thomason (a play on his own name) in John Cleese and Charles Crichton's 1988 comedy smash A Fish Called Wanda.
