Sir Thomas Daniel "Tom" Courtenay (/ˈkɔːrtni/; born 25 February 1937) is an English actor who came to prominence in the early 1960s with a succession of films, including The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner (1962), Billy Liar (1963), and Doctor Zhivago (1965). Since the mid-1960s, he has been known primarily for his work in the theatre, although he received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor for the film adaptation of The Dresser (1983), which he had performed on the West End and on Broadway. He received a knighthood in February 2001 for his service to cinema and theatre.
Courtenay was born in Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire, the son of Annie Eliza (née Quest) and Thomas Henry Courtenay, a boat painter. He attended Kingston High School and studied drama at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) in London.
Courtenay made his stage debut in 1960 with the Old Vic theatre company at the Lyceum, Edinburgh, before taking over from Albert Finney in the title role of Billy Liar at the Cambridge Theatre in 1961. In 1963, he played that same title role in the film version, directed by John Schlesinger. He said of Albert Finney, "We both have the same problem, overcoming the flat harsh speech of the North."

"Mrs Brown You've Got A Lovely Daughter" was a #1 hit on the US pop charts for Herman's Hermits in 1965. The original version of the song, however, had actually been by actor Tom Courtenay two years earlier, in a British TV play entitled 'The Lads'. As photographs from 'The Lads' are somewhat hard to come by (I'm not even sure the play still exists), the visuals here come from a Tom Courtenay film -- one of my all-time favorites, as it happens -- the classic Billy Liar.

This I find to be quite similar in style to Ray Davies' music hall rock operas. It is from the original vinyl pressing and may have a few audible defects. Please keep in mind my videos are never meant to take the place of higher quality sources, and I urge everyone interested in owning this album to seek out their own legitimate copy. 0:00 On My Street 1:51 We're Waiting 4:47 Good Evening! 8:31 I Ought To Be Ashamed Of Myself 11:11 Good Old Legs 14:56 I Have A Dream 17:25 Oh Gawd, Men...Beasts! 19:38 Points Of View 23:14 Spend Spend Spend 25:28 Don't Tell Me That Again 27:26 Frozen Moments 30:18 I Could Not Have Dreamed Him 33:31 Goin' To Barcelona 37:34 Hermione 40:22 When You've Lived In Love With Someone 42:40 Mr. Scrimmett 44:53 The Trouble With People 46:37 It's Be...
Tom Courtenay delivers a star-making turn as William Terrence Fisher ('Billy Liar') in one of the most memorable and universally acclaimed films of the 60s. Running from an unsympathetic working-class family, a pair of demanding fiancées and an insecure job at an undertakers, Billy escapes, Walter Mitty-like, into a world of fantasy where he can realize his dream ambitions. As work and family pressures build to new intolerable levels, Liz (an early, charismatic turn from Julie Christie), enters his drab life and offers Billy the one real chance he'll ever get to leave the past behind. Scripted by Keith Waterhouse from his own novel, and sensitively directed by John Schlesinger (Midnight Cowboy), Billy Liar is one of the few comedies of the British 'New Wave', marrying visual and verbal wit...
Here's a beautiful BBC Radio play circa 1988 of "For King and Country" By John Wilson . The play centres on a young deserter so broken by his experience of war that he hasn't got the will left to defend himself let alone fight on in a gruesome war. For King and Country By John Wilson BBC Radio 4: Saturday Night Theatre Broadcast: Saturday 12th November 1988 @ 7:45 p.m. The 1917 Battle of Passchendaele is the setting for "For King and Country" which is a powerful play that uncovers the officially forgotten casualties of war – the deserters.

During World War I, an army private is accused of desertion during battle. The officer assigned to defend him at his court-martial finds out there is more to the case than meets the eye.
Julie Christie, the rumors are true
As the pages turn, my eyes are glued
To the movie star and his sordid life
Mr. X and his old-suffering wife
I spent so much time dreaming about Eleanor Bron
In my room with the curtains drawn
See her in the arms of Paul
Say it, I can say no more
As the music swells somehow stronger from adversity
Our hero finds his inner peace
So now I'm looking for a lucky charm
With a needle hanging out of its arm
As time goes by I know it's gonna happen
I know it's going away
Gonna take its toll, gonna take its toll
Gonna take my time
And I'm thinking about the way things are
And I'm thinking about the way things were
Thinking about Eleanor Bron
And I'm thinking about a lucky charm
And I'm thinking about the needle
Oh, I'm thinking about the needle
