A former Brookside actor has appeared in court charged with the murder of a nightclub doorman who was shot dead outside a Liverpool pub.
Brian Regan, 53, of St Mary's Road, Garston, who played Terry Sullivan in the soap, is accused of killing Bahman Faraji, 44, in Aigburth on 24 February.
Interesting development.

Fetching a bit of humour into a thread concerning a murder you cant beat it can you lol oh well he wasn't born here was he so its not that important. Wonder what would be allowed if it was a british adult or child that was murdered ? mmm makes you think.

I take it that you have had a humour bypass and accordingly missed all the Harry Enfield sketches that he willingly took part in for money.

The humour has nothing whatsoever to do with the murder and if involved he should be jailed for a very long time.

Oh and by the way I am from Liverpool and I am in no way offended by this thread as we in Liverpool invented comedy.:D

Whats funny about an ex scouse actor being accused of murder ? i did hear ian huntley cracked a few jokes before he was rightly jailed for murder for killing 2 schoolgirls but hey ho god forbid anyone finds any humour in that.

He is an easy target due to his past appearances as I stated above and we English have a penchant to make light of such issues.

If he did it then he will be jailed so please do not make a mountain out of a molehill or do you really like the colour red.:rolleyes:

You do seem set on being at odds with everyone..

So to avoid future annoyance may I suggest that if you really can't stand certain behaviours at CF that you either don't participate in a thread or you put on ignore anyone whose viewpoint you dislike or have issue with OR you just chill and relax and take us as we are.

People are making jokes about the killer and it looks like the family will be getting there justice when he goes to court over the murder.

The jokes have been about the accused NOT the victim so cool your jets.

If there had been any jokes about him then I would be supporting you.Leave the moderating to the mods please.

I would be supporting you also if it was about the victim as no one should make jokes about a victim as that would be sick.

I doubt they are reading this thread and the humour is aimed at the person arrested for his murder and remember this is not praising him whatsoever but basically ridiculing him.

Not really as you are just giving your point of view over this issue, you are just failing to understand that humour tends to be a defence mechanism.

We all realise that Brian Regan has been accused of a mans murder and if guilty we all want him to be jailed for his crime.

Sigh! I was trying to be kind and nice but some people just won't take a hint..

Back on topic everyone which is Brian Regan has been accused of murder..

Re: Former Brookside star Brian Regan charged with murder
 
Are you afraid too ? think most of us have read the background to the murder and know he wasn't a saint. But you can't have different laws for one thing and laws for other things can you. Or is it something else your bothered about perhaps the colour red ?

Zing 13-04-2011 21:03

Re: Former Brookside star Brian Regan charged with murder
 
is there more background to this story? 3 guys all charged with murder. So this is a joint venture case seeing as it was a gunshot that killed him. I aint comfortable with joint venture I know there are going to be cases where all parties knew it was going to happen but there is always going to be times where someone is just out with a guy with no idea he is armed and can end up serving serious bird.

From the BBC quote at the beginning of this thread.

Mr Regan also faces a charge of perverting the course of justice.

I think that we may have to wait some time for any facts..the report is quite sparse with just basic facts.

I read that a single guy was initially charged and then the rest later . I can all but assume the first guy is the shooter. The victim also is not a savory charector so there may well be a lot more to this story than meets the eye. BUt still I do not like joint venture

perverting the course of justice could just be simple lie ie " I was at home with him and her " kinda thing so might not be much in reality

The first link above shows that he was arrested at the beginning of March initially.

yeah I know but we have multiple charges and 1 gunshot wound so only one person fired the gun. To me its just are the others complicit or were they just at the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong person

If it goes to court we will find out once the jury has made its decision, so its a waiting game now.

depends who fired the gun and the reason for it. The victim had a criminal background it remains to be seen if his death is a loss to society or a gain

It is well known in the area all were up to no good, all too common in this day and age I'm afraid. Things like this used to happen every weekend involving door staff in Liverpool going back to my old raving days, the amount of bullets I've dodged is scary :erm:

Its only because of who the accused is this even made it into national media.

There is a dodgy criminal underbelly in pretty much every town in the country. Let them wipe themselves out as long as no one innocent get hurt

Used to go out quite a bit around Aigburth (which is where this happened) and Allerton Road but lately it seems to have become a hotbed of whoppers and wannabe gangsters :(
