• It is linked indelibly with two of the most successful television series of all time, both of which are displayed on the channel ITV: The Sweeney (four strings, 1975-78), participated in the tournament with John Thaw as members of the Aviation Division of the Metropolitan Police. Violent crime and armed robbery; Ranger (1979-1994, with two extended breaks in 10 series overall), playing gofer unfortunates and bodyguard Terry McCann George Cole dodgy Wheeler, dealer Arthur Daly.

•   Was Waterman, unequivocal and always residents of south London, a man difficult, Detective Sergeant George Carter in The Sweeney, a series coincided with the intensive investigation of corruption within the Met Museum itself. In the guard, more than a sitcom drama of serious crimes, and it revealed the existence of more winning line of weakness and inefficiency in the center raised wonderful from the underside of the criminal in west London.

• A number of other sitcom and drama crime series used him throughout the 1990s before the third major success for a long time in his BBC New Tricks (2002-14). Along with James Bolam and Alun Armstrong, playing a retired police officer, Jerry permanent, part of the band "cold case" formed specifically to re-investigate the unsolved murders and other crimes.

As in the Sweeney, where he is melting to deal with the claim officiously detective chief inspector (Garfield Morgan), he often crossed swords with his new tricks detective coach (Amanda Redman). This hierarchy has allowed tensions to display completely hidden group of hard hardness, resentment and bitterness boil.

  Was happy and lucky, uproarious "Jack Boy" image no one navigator any problem in the development. He admitted cheerfully that representation was easy in him an extension of his personality and expectations in life. The drink, women and football activities, the foundation stone for him. Some of those extended to the darker areas, with convictions and accusations of domestic violence claims from his third wife, the actor Rola to Ienska, drink leadership openly discussed in a television interview with Piers Morgan for 10 years.

• It was Waterman, who was born in Clapham, south-west London, the youngest (six years) of nine children, grew up in a drug in the Council in the nearby Putney. His father, Harry Waterman, is the ticket collector at Clapham Junction station, his mother, (Rose nee Saunders), curtains and soft furnishings. Dennis joined the school Jeranard primary school in Putney, and having entered the theater by big sister was busy in amateur science dramas, the play was trained in Corona School in Hammersmith.
• One of his brothers became professional boxing welterweight champion, joined by another British Royal Air Force, and three sisters Dennis finished work in the film industry in Los Angeles. Even before joining the RSC, and Dennis seemed as Moth in lost in Brixton town hall work, love, and made his first, night train to Inverness (1960), playing his son kidnapped diabetes newly released prisoner.
• Stratford-upon-Avon, in the season Peter Hall first RSC, he was a player boy in the Taming of the Shrew, starring Peggy Ashcroft and Peter O'Toole, and young son Mamillius jealous Leontes ragingly Eric Porter, in the winter tale.

  After the completion of the Hollywood gig, recording a sitcom, exchange exhibition, starring Judy Carney, for the production of Lucille Ball company, he was cast Peter Wood, who had directed The Winter's Tale, in Graham Greene religious strange sculpture statue (1964) in HAYMARKET. His son played the rebellious of the sculptor eccentric played by Ralph Richardson. This led to most of the long theater career navigator, at the Royal Court in Sloane Square, a place he described his drama school.

Over three years, 1965-68, he appeared in two controversial plays by Edward Bond – Saved (1965) and Early Morning (1968) – which, as a result of being banned by the lord chamberlain, and performed in less than watertight club conditions, led to the abolition of censorship in the Theatres Act of 1968.

In Saved, Waterman’s disaffected teenager, Colin, was the first of the gang to throw a stone at the baby in the pram in the park. In Early Morning, which presented a lesbian relationship between Queen Victoria (Moira Redmond) and Florence Nightingale (Marianne Faithfull), he played another miscreant teenager who cannibalises a character standing in front of him in a queue.

Both plays, directed by William Gaskill, met with a hostile reception from most critics and audiences, but are now rated modern classics. Also at the Court, Waterman played Fabian in Twelfth Night and Nick, the bastard son of Sir Walter Whorehound, in Thomas Middleton’s tumultuous Jacobean city comedy A Chaste Maid in Cheapside.

There followed a series of movies before he hit the small screen big-time: the 1968 inferior retread of Ken Loach’s television drama Up the Junction; My Lover, My Son (1970), a modern version of the Oedipus myth, in which Romy Schneider offered the wrong sort of mother love to Waterman as her murderous son; and Roy Ward Baker’s Scars of Dracula (1970) in which Christopher Lee, on the point of impaling Waterman on the castle turrets, was struck by lightning and engulfed in flames.

He returned to the RSC in 1978 for a revival of a famous old 19th-century American comedy, Saratoga by Bronson Howard, and returned to musicals in 1982 playing the manipulative journalist Hildy Johnson in another American stage landmark, a musical version by Dick Vosburgh and Tony Macaulay of the great newsroom comedy The Front Page by Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur. This was highly enjoyable, though Michael Billington opined that The Front Page needed music like the Sahara needed sand.

Music, though, was a serious string to Waterman’s bow. He had enjoyed a pop chart success with his recording of the theme tune of Minder (co-written by his second wife, the actor Patricia Maynard), I Could Be So Good for You, and did likewise on several other of his TV shows, a habit that led to a satirical spoof – which he loved – on the Little Britain comedy show.

Many fine actors succeeded O’Toole in the title role of Keith Waterhouse’s Jeffrey Bernard Is Unwell (1989) and it was Waterman’s turn in 1993, when he played the role in Australia, then on tour in Britain, opening at the Theatre Royal, Bath.

His most notable later stage appearance, though, was in the National Theatre’s revival of My Fair Lady in 2001, with Martine McCutcheon as Eliza Doolittle and Jonathan Pryce as Professor Higgins. Waterman’s dustman Doolittle rescued the role from Stanley Holloway knees-up cosiness in a spectacular stag night scene (I’m Getting Married in the Morning) on a manic pub crawl complete with dancing girls in black bodices and fishnet tights.

His last movie, Never Too Late (2020), was filmed in Australia, a comedy drama with four Vietnam war veterans planning a second escape from depressing circumstances in their residential retirement home.

Waterman, a fanatical supporter of Chelsea FC, had a home in Spain, where he died. Three marriages ended in divorce; he is survived by his fourth wife, Pam Flint, whom he married in 2011, and by two daughters from his second marriage, Hannah – an actor who appeared in EastEnders as Laura Beale – and Julia.
