Chris Rea is one of the Deep Ones. He will eventually return to his ancestral home under the North Sea.
He will have a little bit of 'gangsta' business to sort out first, involving,some particular nasty business with the 'mucky raincoat ' brigade, ...
A film made back in '71, was going to star Chris Rea , as Carter in 'Get Carter' , but due to the current murder death chill cold snap Chris couldn't get the Time Transit to start ,there was a long time before the AA would come out to get it started.
So ,not being able to time warp back in time the part of Carter was given to Micheal Caine,( now, not a lot of people know that !)
Originally the anti hero was supposed to have a 'smoggie' accent, but Caine was so good, that they went with his dulcet Sarf Lunnon tones.
It indeed ends with title character ending up in the 'Deep' , shot in the back and floating out to sea.
A sad end to the film, but can't be having anti- heroes winning out can we.
