Ricky Tomlinson
Eric Tomlinson (born 26 September 1939), known by his stage name Ricky Tomlinson, is an English actor, comedian, author and activist best known for his roles as Bobby Grant in ''Brookside'', DCI Charlie Wise in ''Cracker'' and Jim Royle in ''The Royle Family''.
==Early life==
Tomlinson was born Eric Tomlinson in Bispham, Blackpool, Lancashire, and has lived in Liverpool nearly all his life. Tomlinson was born in Bispham because his mother, Peggy, was evacuated there due to the Liverpool Blitz in World War II. He had three children with his first wife.
A qualified plasterer by trade, he worked on various building sites for many years becoming actively involved in politics (firstly with the far-right, then more predominantly with the far-left). In 1968, he joined the far-right National Front in support of less immigration after Enoch Powell's Rivers of Blood speech. His political views shifted strongly to the left in the early 1970s, and in 1972 he joined the flying pickets in a building workers' dispute in Shrewsbury. In 1973, Tomlinson was sentenced to two years in prison after being found guilty of "conspiracy to intimidate" as one of the so-called Shrewsbury Two.〔(Ricky Tomlinson battles to overturn 1970s prison term - BBC News )〕 After his release in 1975, he disrupted the TUC conference by shouting from the wings after he had been prevented from speaking from the stage. In 2012 Tomlinson and others sought to have the convictions overturned by the Criminal Cases Review Commission. In 2013 a paper petition was launched, alongside the existing e-petiton, for an Early Day Motion by MP John McDonnell to be brought. In July 2013, at the Durham Miners' Gala, he again campaigned against the convictions.
