Oh yeah, another person I'd like to meet is the mongrel who nicked my car.

Preferably alone and in some dark alley.

You're lucky. I wasn't reading this thread, I just click on it to see the first few names and the name Lynch stood out. I skipped everything after page 1 on this thread.

There have been at least a dozen TV series about him, so I would assume there must have been films about him. Hang on, I'll ask the wife...

EDIT: She said loads of them...

EDIT 2: Just a quick google found this one...

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0047444/

So if you do the search yourself, you'll a) have all the info, and b) save me the time.
