Biography (wiki)

Lewis Collins (27 May 1946 – 27 November 2013) was an English film and theatre actor. His career defining role was playing the character of Bodie in the late 1970s - early 1980s British television series The Professionals.

The son of Bill Collins, a shipwright and amateur musician, who played the piano in local clubs with the dance band The Savoy Swingers, Lewis was born in Bidston, Birkenhead, on the Wirral Peninsula in Cheshire. At the age of two he won 'The Most Beautiful Baby in Liverpool' contest. He was educated at Bidston Avenue Primary School and Grange School in Birkenhead, and the Birkenhead Institute School.

When he was 13 years of age his father bought him a drum kit for £25. His first gig was playing with his father's band, and he also joined a group of older school pupils to form a band called The Renegades at the start of the Merseybeat music scene in Liverpool in the late 1950s. His passion for firearms started in his youth from a membership of the Liverpool Central Rifle Club. On leaving school, he took an apprentice hairdresser's position at the Andre Bernard Salon, alongside fellow apprentice Mike McCartney. He gained a reputation for his barbering skill, and became the local hairdresser for singer Helen Shapiro. In the same period he was writing songs with Mike at the McCartney home, and when drummer Pete Best was dropped from the Beatles Mike McCartney suggested Collins as a possible replacement, to band member and his elder brother Paul McCartney. Turning down the option of an audition with the Beatles, Collins continued playing music on an amateur basis for a number of local bands, including the Eyes and the Georgians.
