Pete The Jakey

Peter "Pete the Jakey" MacCormack was a recurring character on the comedy series Still Game, first appearing in "Cauld".

Pete was also referred to as "Pete the Tramp" or "Smelly Pete," although he may or may not secretly be an undercover agent working with the government.

In the Series 7 episode "The Undrinkables" it was revealed that Pete had passed away, although his cause of death is unknown. It was also revealed he'd been on an even keel since his last appearance, thanks to Boaby opening up early to serve him a fry-up and a mug of tea.
