Biography
Hector Nichol was an Edinburgh comedian, notoriously blue and with a penchant for dressing up in outrageous female costumes during his act. He recorded a classic anthem for the football club Heart of Midlothian and also an anthem for Dundee, Dundee Utd and Hibernian.
In 1979 he played a dying gangster in the BBC's Peter McDougall drama, 'Just a Boy's Game' . His performance was a remarkable study of stubborn, hollow disregard for life around him,
His potential career as a straight actor was cut short by his death in the early eighties.
