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.

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.

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.
