Main characters
Picture Character Actor Series Information Jack Jarvis & Victor McDade Ford Kiernan & Greg Hemphill 1- Jack Jarvis and Victor McDade have been friends for sixty years (since childhood) and now live on the same floor of Osprey Heights, their tower block. Both Jack and Victor are widowers, having lost their wives Jean and Betty, over ten years earlier. They don't see much of their families anymore; Jack's daughter Fiona lives near Toronto, Canada, with her husband Tony and her two sons Jack and Steven. Victor's son John lives in Johannesburg with his family. Winston Ingram Paul Riley 1- Winston Ingram is a good friend of Jack and Victor's. He is known for his attempts to make money. Sometimes, this is as simple as a bet at the bookies and sometimes it takes the form of less honest acts to make his life a little more comfortable. He has several enemies including Stevie the Bookie. In the episode "Scran", it was revealed Winston used to work in the Clyde shipyards. His eighty-a-day cigarette habit caught up with him though, and led to him losing his right leg at the end of the third series. He is known to have a daughter and two grandchildren. In episodes "Dug" and "Holiday", he also pretended to have a relationship with Isa to fend off her ex-husband, Harry's attempts to get back with her; Winston often takes advantage of Isa's kindness in order to receive free food. In the earlier stage play, he talks about a brother living in Nevada and a son who died in a car accident in the 1960s but it is unknown if this is correct with the television series. He has a daughter Margaret and a grandson Thomas who is a tearaway. He also has another grandson Joe whom he managed for boxing but didn't succeed. In the episode "Wummin", he pretended to have a sore leg to earn himself a Home Help, but she found out and banned him from using the service, much to his horror. His dislikes include the local gossip Isa (portrayed by Jane McCarry), who will stop at nothing to find out anything - his annoyance is shown in the episode "Wireless", when Isa asks him to go to the local dance with her. He refuses as he has a sore leg, and she gets revenge by hinting to his home-help Mrs Begg that Winston is pretending in order to keep her. He is friends with Jack, Victor, Tam, Eric and sometimes Boaby the Barman, who works in the local pub Jennys, previously called the Clansman. Tam Mullen Mark Cox 1- Thomas "Tam" Mullen is another resident of Craiglang and he can be a bit of an old miser at times. He is always conning people into giving him free belongings or buying him a drink and is known for being unapologetically greedy if he can get something for nothing. His softer side came out when he was introduced to Frances, the local librarian whom he fought with Winston over. He got married to her in the episode "Ring" but in the episode "Saucy", became attracted to her sister, Molly - a kindred soul and more experienced miser than himself. In the end, he decided he was happy with Frances and laid to rest his feelings for his sister-in-law. Tam is a DJ at Western General Hospital and often manages to con the terminally ill out of their valuable possessions. Tam's miserable attitude about money often causes a rift between himself and his wife, but at 70, Tam became a father of Tam Junior and Frances became Britain's oldest mum. Tam tends to be Winston's 'double act' partner, the latter was the best man at Tam's wedding. Isa Drennan Jane McCarry 1- Isa Drennan is another resident of Osprey Heights. She is known as the local gossip and will stop at nothing in her quest to find out the latest tidbits. Isa also works as a cleaner in Navid's shop. Isa was also married to Harry, who left her and stole money from her. In "Scones", he returned, apparently changed, but eventually stole from her again. He then returned for a second time in "Dug" but was given a much less warm welcome by Isa who told him that they were finished. It was revealed in "Scones" that Isa has a crush on the late Richard Whiteley. In "Dug" and "Hoaliday", she had a pretend relationship with Winston; although unrequited, Isa has a secret flame for Winston but her obsession with gossip and tendency to be nosy often sabotages her chances. Isa's husband Harry died in the series six episode "Hot Seat". Isa is heavily involved with community projects and charities, attends dance classes and helps others in the community - Winton maintains this is her way of keeping in touch with people to 'keep in tap with everyone's business'. Every year Isa cooks the Christmas dinner for the community centre while still making time to cook Christmas dinner for Jack and Victor. She briefly falls out with Jack and Victor in the Christmas special "Cold Turkey" when she overhears them telling Navid that they use her for the Christmas Dinner, but they later apologise and she forgives them. In the episode "Gairden", she mentions her son Colin, whom bought her a mobile phone incase of an emergency. Navid Harrid Sanjeev Kohli 1- Navid Harrid runs the local shop with his soap opera-loving wife Meena. Navid and Meena came to Craiglang in 1975 after having secretly eloped from India as Meena was due to be wed in an arranged marriage. Navid is full of witty one-liners but has to put up with Meena's constant nagging; although he and Meena spend most of their time verbally sparring, he occasionally reveals he is still in love with her and grows jealous when she goes to India to visit her sister but ends up instead visiting with an old flame. He is a Muslim who laments the fact that his religion forbids both gambling and the consumption of alcohol; in a series five episode, Navid has mid-life crisis and dyes his hair, begins flirting with all the local female pensioners, and goes against his religion by gambling and drinking in the Clansman, although in the end it is Meena who has to beat some sense into him. As a tribute to Maris Crane from the sitcom Frasier, Meena's face is never seen, and Meena never speaks English on-screen, so Navid is the only person in the shop who knows what she is talking about, though her lines are usually subtitled. They have a daughter who got married in the first series. In the final episode of series four, a man who is supposedly Navid's illegitimate son is seen (also played by Sanjeev Kohli). Ford Kiernan has stated the name of Navid's shop 'Harrid's is a play on words of 'Harrods'. In series 6, the post office is moved to the inside of Navid's store. Boaby the Barman Gavin Mitchell 1- Boaby (the Scots form of Bobby) is the landlord of "Jenny's" (previously known as "The Clansman", even though it is regularly still referred to as such), the local pub. Boaby isn't a believer of the phrase, "the customer is always right", and prefers to hand out snide comments with his pints; not that the locals are the type of people to take them lying down. He always has a new nickname for Jack and Victor whenever they enter Jenny's but Jack and Victor always come back with a comment that puts Boaby in his place. It has been revealed that he had a brief career as a porn star, where he went under the name of "Troy the gardener". In the episode "Who's the Daddy", Boaby reveals he has been working behind the bar of the Clansman since he was eighteen. He usually has a grievance with either Winston (usually barring him for various antics), or Tam (who refuses to pay for his drinks). Although Boaby is sarcastic and mouthy by nature, he occasionally shows he has a charitable and honorable side, and shows respect for Isa, often finding grievance with anyone who does her wrong. Eric James Martin 1- Eric - Eric is frustrated with his old body, he sees himself as "a young man trapped in an old man's body", Eric is often seen talking with Tam and Winston. Eric managed to save Winston from a potential relationship with Isa in "Hoaliday". He seems to spend all his time in The Clansman or else in the local bookies. In "Hot Seat" it is revealed he used to be a fireman. Often when Boabby can't be in the pub, Eric is chosen to cover for him, much to the joy of the regulars. Eric is played by James Martin. Recurring characters

Shug (a Scots alternative to the name Hugh) played By Paul Young, who has extremely large ears (earning him the nickname "Shug the Lug", lug being a Scots word for ear), seems to be a self-proclaimed expert in radios and sound waves. He was a communications officer during World War II and he often goes off on long talks about it, much to Victor's annoyance. Jack and Victor take an answering machine message across to him so that he can try and find out what part of the message said that was obscured. He succeeds in identifying practically everything else but the actual message itself, including what newspaper someone is reading due to identifying the background noise. Jack and Victor often rely on Shug for technical help. Shug can also apparently hear through walls. It was revealed in "A fresh lick" that Shug has a part time job as an over-night security guard in "Delanys" department store.
Pete McCormack (better known as "Pete The Jakey") (2002 - present) - Pete the Jakey is a familiar sight to residents of Craiglang, almost the archetypal tramp., Pete also has a very active imagination.

He eventually left Craiglang, acknowledging that he wasn't wanted by Isa any longer. In the Hogmany special, it was also revealed that Harry may have been adulterous. In "Hot Seat", it is revealed that Harry has died, but Isa feels nothing for him.

After stealing Winston's winnings and doing a runner, he returned in "Drama" posing as his older brother Frankie. While everyone else in Craiglang falls for this act, Winston sees through it and confronts him. Stevie admits to the scam but maintains that Winston can't prove it. Tam then is revealed to have heard the whole conversation while hiding in the lavy, the ultimate line, 'That's you out of bog roll Stevie'.

At the end of Series 2, Fiona invited Jack to visit her in Canada. Jack invites Victor to go with him, but he initially refuses out of jealousy that Jack's daughter cares for her father. However, Victor changed his mind and visited Canada with Jack. Fiona was pleased to see both her father and Victor. Jack brought out his late wife's wedding ring from Fiona to keep. Fiona offered Jack the choice of staying in Canada with them, but he refused due to the fact he still has roots in Craiglang (and the fact he still has £8 left on his power card).

Archie (2004) A reclusive man. Despite being a friend of Jack and Victor, he hasn't set foot outside his house since the mid-1960s. His reason for this is that he was evacuated during the war to a farm and was comfortable with a peaceful life. When he returned to Craiglang, it was like New York to him. In 1966, he put his boot through his TV after England's victory in the world cup. Because of his reclusive lifestyle, the social services would visit him making sure he was alright for food, clothes and money.

John McDade (2004) Victor's son. So far, John has had only one appearance on Still Game, but is regularly referred to. John lives in South Africa with his family. He doesn't keep in contact with his father much. This upsets Victor, because he misses his son. Victor is so annoyed with John, he sometimes refers to him as an "uncaring bastard". To try and get more attention from his son, Victor pretended he was ill. This news worried John so much that he flew over from South Africa to Craiglang to be at his father's side. John later discovered that Victor was only pretending to be ill and he was annoyed. Victor apologised, but pointed out to John that it was due to lack of contact. John understood he was on the wrong as well and they made up. At least for now.
Rena (2005) The lady who work's in the cafe. Rena is a widow and she is having an affair with a man almost twice her age, Wullie. Wullie is a friend of Jack and Victor's. They believe it's good for Wullie that he's found love, but Isa believes that Rena is trying to kill Wullie in order to keep his house. For example, Rena has Wullie working hard for her and Isa thinks Wullie will end up dying from being overworked. Nobody believes Isa until Rena comes into Navid's and buys a bottle of white spirits, a box of matches and a packet of jammie dodgers. Even Navid believed that Rena was going to set a trap for Wullie and felt that Isa was not as crazy as he thought. That night, there is a storm. Wullie is on the roof of his house fixing the TV aerial when he slips and crashes through the greenhouse. Isa looks out her window and sees the police and an ambulance outside his house. She knocks on Jack and Victor's and asks them to come with her. However, it is revealed that Wullie has survived the fall, but Rena has died. Rena had heard the noise and came running down the stairs, but tripped and broke her neck.
Wullie Reid (2005) A Craiglang pensioner. Wullie is friendly with Jack and Victor but is having a relationship with Rena, a woman half his age. He believes he is really in love, but Isa suspects that Rena means to kill Wullie. Jack and Victor think it's funny that Wullie is "shagging" Rena. One stormy night, Wullie is on the room fixing the TV aerial for Rena when he slips and falls off the roof. He ended up crashing through the greenhouse. Miraculously he survived, but Rena heard the noise, and fell down the stairs breaking her neck. Wullie is devastated at her death, but fancies the female paramedic.
Davie (2005) A bus driver for Dial-a-Bus. Although Davie appears to be friendly and helpful, he suffers from manic depression. This is due to his mother not being well. His mother's illness means that she only eats doughnuts from Greggs and causes her to be cranky with her son. Despite this, Davie determines to work hard and doesn't charge the pensioners for the fares. Jack and Victor get used to this service. One day, he returns to work very quickly after being off with his depression. Because Isa had doughnuts from Greggs, the sight of this causes Davie to have a mental breakdown and he terrorises the passengers. He stops when he nearly ran over Boaby riding his bike. The passengers attempted to shut him out the bus but let him in when he promises to take them to a pub. He explains his sad story and Jack, Victor, Isa and Boaby forgave him.
Thomas (2005) Winston's other grandson. Thomas is a ned, who causes trouble for his parents. His mother, Margaret, warned him that if he didn't behave, he wouldn't be coming on holiday with them. This ended up happening and Thomas had to stay with Winston, while his parents were away. Winston was cross and was determined to straighten out Thomas. However, Thomas smuggled in a girl, a cannabis plant disguised as a tomato plant and his friends. His friends made cookies containing cannabis, making Winston believe they killed his tomato plant. They even ate Winstons pies that were meant to be for his dinner. Winston was very annoyed and was going to grass on Thomas until he ate the cookies. Winston got stoned and Thomas was off the hook.
Chris Howden (2005) A property developer. Chris had made plans to demolish the Clansman. This news upset Boaby and the regulars. Even Navid was concerned because if the only pub in town was to close, his shop would be next. Jack, Victor and Winston made a protest, but it didn't go well. Chris offered to buy them a drink, which they accepted. Chris explained that he wanted to demolish the Clansman in order to recreate the houses that used to stand there. This is because his mother was brought up in one of these houses. However, he reveals that his mother's name was Jenny Turnbull, a woman who Jack, Victor and Winston had sexual relationships with. This meant that one of them could be Chris' father. They are worried that their families would be disgusted, but Boaby believes that this could save the pub, since no one would demolish their father's favourite pub. None of the men are successful in finding out but it is Isa who susses it out when she sees an old photo of Winston's that she took. Isa worked out that Pete 'the Jakey' was missing from the photo and he must have had sex with Jenny. Furthermore, Pete has a letter from Jenny proving he is the father of Chris. Chris decides to keep the pub, but renames it 'Jennys' in honour of his mother.
Molly Drummond (2006) The sister of Frances, Tam’s wife and therefore Tam’s sister in-law. Molly lives in Finport, on the coast and came to Craiglang to visit her sister. Molly didn’t manage to make it to Tam and Frances’ wedding. In the past, Molly was a famous singer and was recognised by Jack. Tam claims that Frank Sinatra bought her a drink when she performed in New York, although this is probably a lie in order to get a free round from Boaby. Tam discovered that Molly was just as tight fisted as he is. Tam thought this was a turn on saying as Frances disapproves of his stinginess. Because Frances is busy at the library, Tam has to show Molly around Craiglang. Eventually, Tam has to lay his feeling for Molly to rest since he is already married. Molly is upset and grabs Tam's balls.
