Stage Door Records via Twitter have announced the death of actor Ron Pember at the age of 87. Ron appeared in two episodes of The Sweeney: in "Regan" he was the Landlord at the Old Justice, (and I think the first person to ever speak on The Sweeney), and in "Down To You Brother" he played the part of Apps. Ron had many other roles including playing Alain Muny in "Secret Army", Mike Connor in "Sink or Swim", and Bobby Weeks in "Give Us a Break"
RIP

Sad news. A familiar face who could lend his talents to comedy, drama, theatre as an actor, writer and director. RIP.

Very sad news indeed. Ron was in loads of stuff including The Professionals, Minder and Filthy Rich & Catflap. A very versatile actor.
R.I.P Ron.

Sad news. I recognized Ron from his many appearances on our screens over the years. I was glad to see that Ron lived to a good old age.
RIP Ron.

RIP Ron, one of the most familiar faces on 70's/80's tv.
A good innings considering he looked fairly old even in the 1970's. Usually cast in small roles & played them in a believable, lowkey manner.
