Jackie Dennis

Jackie Dennis (8 October 1942 – 28 September 2020) was a Scottish singer.

The brothers brought him to the attention of the show business agent Eve Taylor, and he appeared on the television programme, Six-Five Special, at the age of 15,[3] and in a subsequent film spin-off.

The kilt-wearing, spiky-haired pop singer enjoyed seven successful years in the show business and toured the world.

[4] Dennis appeared on Perry Como's US television show,[5] where he was introduced as 'Britain's Ricky Nelson' performing the song "Linton Addie"[6] and was best man at entertainer Tommy Steele's wedding.

Latterly, Jackie worked as a nursing home carer, before retiring and living in Pilton, Edinburgh, with wife Irene, to whom he was married for over 30 years.
