Isn't that thingy? Page 8

his first role was as Little Mildred in Tales of Rudyard Kipling in 1964, but it's probably not something he talks about...

He played somebody's little mildred? I've never called mine that.

The dates on IMDb are likely to show US rather than UK broadcast/release dates, so Chappers could be correct.

I may be wrong but just trying to point out he was a leading actor way back then.

Favourite cameo was Frank Skinner in Time Gentlemen Please. ooh Fact Hunt!

The Victorian policeman who was absurdly fond of Amanda Lamb in Harry Hill was Ben Aris, who played Yvonne Stuart-Hargreaves' second dance partner in Hi-de-Hi!. For the record his character name was Julian Dalrymple-Sykes. He also played a Special Branch policeman in You Rang M'Lord?.

Apparently, Andi Osho was in Casualty or Holby.

Dressed as a nurse? Sorry! Got a bit flustered there for a second.

I spotted a young Bill Cosby from 'The Cosby Mysteries' in an episode of the old sitcom 'The Cosby Show' the other day. Apparently he also makes an appearance in the american 'One Foot in the Grave' remake 'Cosby'.

Best though, is Erol from off of 15 Storeys High (Benedict Wong) being cast in Alien 5 (ie Prometheus.) Having watched this man getting into all kinds of trouble just trying to mop-up treacle in a tower-block stairwell, he doesn't strike me as our best bet in an all-out war against the face-huggers.

I love him to bits though. Bless.

Bet he dies first.

Eh? Oh.

STARTING their careers you say? *cough* Yes, now you mention it I do remember reading that around eight pages ago. Sorry.

Let me make it up to you.
