Lesley-Anne Down gets nicked in "The Sweeney" 1975

[dandydanlevy]

Billyconnearly, you're a real charmer.

[billyconnearly]

The Sweeney was rejected by US TV as it was too everything! BTW Lesley-Anne was the last woman who's shite I would have used as toothpaste!

Love that.

[kevintheshedend1976]

I was just a kid when The Sweeny was the absolute TOPS on telly, so maybe a lot of what went on flew over my head, but smoking spliff? On prime-time telly? I definitely don't remember that. It must have been really cutting edge at the time

[Kelly14UK]

Lol! They used the key thing at the end of the final movie?

[nitro74cs]

She is very beautiful.

why is that mg left hand drive?

[WEENOB]

woman looked like real woman then  !

[Butchuk2007]

Heard that a remake is on the cards with Ray Winstone playing Regan.

[StaunchComic]

LAD is a fucking dried up coke whore with zero talent! In person she is a horrible stuck up old cunt! Her kids were taken away from her because of her coke habit. HATE HER!

[TheSuperk25]

@StaunchComic She admits her mistakes and that was ages ago..she's still married to Fauntleroy, quit smoking and drugs, you know people change as they mature. So stop posting mean comments ( I see u in a couple of LAD videos) as it only put wrinkles on your face, LAD doesn't know you exist and fans don't care. You hate her but we love her as the way she is so. Move on.

[StaunchComic]

@TheSuperk25 In Robert Wagnors new book "Pieces of my Heart" published 2010 he writes about what a fucking bitch she is also. So if I want to tell my true personal experiance with this bitch I WILL. So what if she's changed, LOL BULLSHIT! Most actors start out doing soaps and then move up LAD has tried to do soaps and ruin how many shows?

She's DREADFUL!

Correct I don't know or want to know this silly cow I met her and her fat sister Melaine only once THANK GOD! You've never met LAD :(

[TheSuperk25]

@StaunchComic No one's losing a sleep on your hatred over LAD.It's difficult to keep fame.It can be slip away by mismanagement,losing out in competition,bad press,self destructive behavior like A.Winehouse &L.Lohan do.Even W.Goldberg who's at one point became a highest paid actress said she did THE VIEW because she needed a job and no ones asking her to do movies.Its better to do soap than having no job at all. All I could say is don't let this cause u hypertension & add more lines to your face.

[SCOTLANDSSHAMEHOLLIE]

@TheSuperk25 well said

[984rtgh]

Always thought she might have made a good Purdey in The New Avengers...

[gouvyrock]

i want her!!!!!!!!!

[MOSTechnology]

Perfect woman

[burnt62]

Acting of lesley Ann Down was poor ... but what a babe !

[TheZanipolo]

Shut it!

[xylaphonemaster]

Pre-rolled in a box, classy!

[Melville10]

I remember seeing her in the Great Train Robbery with Connery and Sutherland. I think she does soaps now.

[MyMerlin1]

You COW !

[tightbastard]

Btilliant!!!...thank you.

[Michael1984360]

You're nicked you slag

[seventiesclassic]

I think I've got Lesley Ann Down Syndrome.

[fonzi0was0cool]

yep, she was a REAL woman. everything a man would want. as pure as the himalayas. unlike the fake botoxed slags these days.

[momsbabyboy]

@fonzi0was0cool she's definitly one of them now

[fonzi0was0cool]

it was acceptable in those days to swear at a woman, call her 'cow', 'whore' and 'rubbish', in the course of a normal conversation.

of course nowadays, that sort of language would be considered unacceptable and vile. almost as if it is outlawed.

[SuctionTesticleMan]

or alternatively, you just have TINY COJONES

[fonzi0was0cool]

and you have a brain the size of a pea, and a testube as a penis.

[Reegatron]

you sound like you miss the old days

[fonzi0was0cool]

sure do.

[ClockworkDonkey]

God she is so beautiful

[borgduck]

@ClockworkDonkey I agree, but there's one I find more beautiful from 60's Doctor Who.

[abdiyaniman]

@ClockworkDonkey Yes indeed! I do agree. She is amazing and is particularly worthy and matched to play in worthy movies

[arita2006]

Lesley Anne Down is absolutely gorgeous. She looks so sexy here.

[sussexmews]

David Lodge (Pop)...The Guvnor!

[dickphair]

holy shit,she was 100% pure lure

[Olibhear333]

I didn't know Lesley Anne Down was British. I also know her from North and South so far. She is very beautiful. I also cannot wait to watch every episode of THE SWEENEY. Just ordered it. Probably the best UK cop show ever.

[wizzolf]

hey there. i feckin LOVE The Sweeney, only have been able to purchase the first series and the first and second movies here in u.s.a.-perhaps you know where to get the subsequent series? have you seen Life On Mars? they copy the look and feel and sounds of the sweeney. anyway, be well.

[Olibhear333]

Hi, well, I dont know about the US but you can get the entire series in the UK on DVD. You got to have a player that supports all region codes. I bought the box just last month and I am still hooked. There are some nice specials on it as well. LOM is fantastic ! Philip Glenister has become one of my favorite actors!

[wizzolf]

ok, thanks, Olibhear333. yeah, philip glenister & that role seem to be one! take care

[kealyc]

She was in "The Betsy" in 1978. Could somone post it please ? That would be really good, especially her bed scene with Richard Gere.

[MultiManners]

dose anybody no what the name of this episode is and which series its from

[tonyrome67]

MultiManners, it was the first episode of the second season, entitled Chalk & Cheese.

[WETNWILD85]

WOW!!!!!! Lesley Anne was SO RIDICIOUSLY BEAUTIFUL. She still is. I watch her on The Bold & The Beautiful,and she's magnificent. I think she's had a little work done,but who has'nt? She's SEXY. I can't believe she turned 55 last month in March.

[alyvvie]

I agree.

[timelleb]

what a babe, wheres the tardis I need to get back to 1975 now!!!

[josatinho]

she is beautiful...but she was hot in sweeney

[thesubtleface]

There is a scene in this episode where the beautiful LAD shows she has no panties on! Buy the dvd to view....

[mrshrubber]

Shane Briant FTW!

[rockergirl83]

WOW. To be honest the only movie I only saw Lesley Anne in was North and South. I knew she was British but I was so used to seeing her in N&S where she did a thick southern accent. But I still think she is the most beautiful woman to walk the earth.

[scaryflakybiscuits]

I'll happily watch anything Lesley-Anne Down's in.

[897384]

"Get yer trousers off"!!! lesley anne.

[EuroAlien]

Seconded! :)

My mother warned me about women like that...oh did she ever!!! :)

[shewonderswhy]

thanks for sharing. first time i see it!

[martinwilliamrandall]

As a rock hard Sweeney fan apart from certain elements this is one of the weekest episodes of the series

[OliviaForeverSB]

Thank you!

[Janybody17]

Oh I want to see this movie now. Lesley is so wonderful!

[evansblack]

Thank you for posting! She is so beautiful!
