Budgie T.V. Series

In the 1970's, film star and singer Adam Faith had a highly successful drama series where he starred as lovable rogue Ron 'Budgie' Bird. Despite having a long suffering girlfriend, Budgie also sought solace with Inga  - played by Margaret.

Inga crops up in many episodes but a key episode to feature her is 'Brief Encounter'. Broadcast in 1972, I find this episode is a bittersweet tale brilliantly acted by all involved, with a particular emphasis on Margaret's quite moving portrayal as poor Inga. I have included a link to the YouTube clip from 'Brief Encounter'!
