Sheila Hancock on Jack Gold: he was the director my husband John Thaw loved and respected above all others

My husband John Thaw worked with many directors, some of whom cut their teeth working on the Sweeney, Kavanagh QC and Morse before going on to illustrious careers.

Jack Gold was there at the start of his professional life in the film The Bofors Gun (1968) and at the end when he devised and directed the beautiful tribute after John’s death.
