ITV's Budgie was written by Keith Waterhouse and had Adam Faith in the title role, playing Ronald 'Budgie' Bird - a chirpy cockney, just out of prison, and scraping a living on the edge of the law.
Budgie was an eternal failure and every scam, and every attempt to make his fortune landed him further and further into trouble, either with the police, or with his untrustworthy sometime boss, the cynical Charlie Endell, a respectable club owner on the surface, and underworld villain below it.
Budgie brought us more dodgy 'erberts than you could shake a truncheon at in what was in many ways a superior forerunner to Minder.

 MTV.com - Budgie
Often thought of as a cross between Black Sabbath (due to their plodding, molten-heavy riffs) and Rush (due to their singer's high-pitch, Geddy Lee-esque wail), the somewhat obscure British metal outfit Budgie has influenced countless outfits, despite enduring countless lineup shifts throughout their history.
The group originally formed in 1967 in Cardiff, Wales, comprised of members Burke Shelley (vocals, bass), Tony Bourge (guitar), and Raymond Phillips (drums), and by the early '70s, had inked a deal with MCA Records.
But almost as soon as they disbanded, several high-profile groups began covering Budgie classics, including Metallica ("Crash Course in Brain Surgery" and "Breadfan"), Iron Maiden ("I Can't See My Feelings"), and Soundgarden ("Homicidal Suicidal"), while back in their early club days, Van Halen was known to cover the title track from In for the Kill.

As well as the many film and stage roles Georgina has made many guest roles in many famous TV series such as her cult eccentric roles including her marvellous performance of Tabatha Bag along as her other roles including Daisy K in Doctor Who in 1988 (See image left).
She has a unique way of portraying her characters and her Tabatha Bag is a great example of this - a cult character full of unpredictability and a flare for the delivery of funny lines, her unique voice, talent and body movement add to her eccentricity.
Since appearing in T-Bag Georgina has been in many films such as Preaching To The Perverted and TV programmes such as Casualty and recently (December 2002) The Bill (ITV) as Marilyn Costello and her performance as this ‘baddy’ resembles Tabatha Bag’s evil intent perfectly.
