Barry Evans death was 'iffy' if I mind right, and that would've been in the forum. IIRC, he had left acting and was a Cabbie. Died in suspicious circumstances?

New Zealand though......http://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/celebrities/87664559/2016-was-a-brutal-year-for-celebrities--heres-who-we-lost Maybe she'll get a mention in end of year round ups. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,472 Posted December 16, 2016 Looking around for something else, I stumbled across the fact that Scottish character actress Edith MacArthur (High Road, Taggart, the underrated Omega Factor, Hamish MacBeth, practically everything remotely Scottish on TV ever...) is still around, and 91 in March. Was convinced she'd died ages ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ankou 17 Posted January 25, 2017 I'm always surprised by how few of these British actors I've ever heard of. But then I don't think any of those shows these obscure actors played in ever were successful outside of Britain... except for the American remakes. It's a bit sad, actually.

Bibliogryphon 9,582 Posted January 25, 2017 Many of these actors worked extensively on the stage both before and after Secret Army. Christopher Neame has appeared in Babylon 5 and Star Trek as well as in Ghostbusters II and License to Kill. Terrence Hardiman is best known for his portrayal of the Demon Headmaster in a BBC adaptation of the Gillian Cross books. Jan Francis went on to the long running sit-com Just Good Friends. I suspect many of these actors you may recognise the face but not the name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ankou 17 Posted January 25, 2017 Maybe. But then I have to confess we don't get much British tv shows here, and apart from Doctor Who there are mostly Benny Hill Show and and Mister Bean reruns. Blackadder or Monty Python's Flying Circus haven't aired in years. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
