lazarus   68 #6 Posted October 18, 2021 During the court case and his ultimate execution, Mrs Dyson whom Charlie lusted after, had  moved to Harrington Road , all the houses have gone but just a short piece of the road runs at the rear of what was The Earl of Arundel and Surrey on Queens Road.

I don't know if anyone else remembers reading these Charlie Peace stories in the weekly Buster comic?  Even as a little lad, I remember thinking it was quite an odd character to have in a comic... ... and not one that I particularly enjoyed reading about either!  The strange thing is, I can't remember (without Googling) any of the other characters in the comic... ... yet they were far more interesting at the time, and turned out to be responsible for helping develop a little lad's sense of humour that has fortunately (though many would probably disagree) never left me!
