Excellent spot Soldier and good screenshots to prove it Arthur. In fact, I reckon the bloke looks like Dennis Waterman Gene.

Great screenshots Arthur! Don't know why it's taken 20+ years for me to spot that!!!! Wasn't sat down watching it, just on in the background and it caught my eye. Not one I've watched as often as some of the others, but some good scenes. Like to night time scenes around Soho, very atmospheric, and some nice location shots - I always enjoy the episodes where you get to see what London was like nearly 50 years ago.

Ward's girlfriend puts her head round the door & says 'can I 'ave me 'andbag?' The voice certainly sounds female but as the lights are out it's hard to see her face, this would lead you to think that the light was turned off deliberately ( would Blakeney's men bother to turn off Ward's bedroom light as they left the room? ) so you couldn't see it was a man in a wig, though having looked at the scene again I think I saw some boob This is where HD comes in handy. The question is, if it is a woman why would they put a bad wig on her for such a minor scene where you barely see her? Surely they'd have got a half decent looking woman to play the part if the scene was scripted.
Other parts of this episode also seem a bit rushed, I'm thinking in particular of the off duty copper chasing Ray Winstone & his mate. It's an odd episode for sure. According to wikipedia, the writer of Loving Arms, Robert Wales was a Scotsman who emigrated to Australia. He has only 7 imdb writing credits. Amoungst his writing is a play called 'The Cell', set in a convent, most of his other writing is what you'd call 'Westerns' set in the outback. I suppose Loving Arms combines the two with its religious & gun themes.
