Again, this is far from even a guest spot, but in (I think) The Wrong Goodbye, Mellish crashes into the back of Terry's Capri (Terry's giving "Veronica" [again, I think] - one of those girlfriends of his that we see fleetingly then never again - a driving lesson) because Mellish is distracted by a beautiful blonde crossing the road. She's a leggy beauty with huge blonde Eighties hair, a real stunner. By my reckoning she'd be about fifty now.

One that always makes me laugh is Lennard Pearce in the one Arther is stand for local council.

Though not named or indicated, its clear that he is playing Grandad Trotter (even wearing the same clothes) and wasn't this officially the last thing he filmed (bar some minor sense for Only Fools and Horses) before he died?

Very tough ask to state a 'fave' but shall put good word in for episode 'A Nice Little Wine' as of Wed 11th Feb 2015, have seen 2 participants in flesh.

The fine, asian actor Burt Kwouk many years back passing through crowds near Aldgate East, at far end of episode.

Second being 'Eastenders' former 'Pat Pheonix/Wickes/Butcher'.., Pam St Clement .

Had brief few words with Pam, whilst on visit to Bexleyheath, yesterday. Fans of the show, gathered well and many got a few polite words too. ( Thanks to the courtesy of fl-publicist Louise)

Not sure if am in any picture on the day, (unlike 'Expendables 3 'Premiere ), not intentional if did.
Sadly no convinient chance to ask about her earlier involvement with 'Joan Littlewood'

Diane Malin as Debbie was my favourite recurring guest star. Started as a stripper, but then became a mobile hairdresser and Tel's on-off bit-on-the-side. My other favourite 'one-off' was the incomparable James Booth as Godfrey in 'Give Us This Day Arthur Daley's Bread' - "the old wossername..."

Anne Lynn as Rose Mellors - she's hilarious.

Mr. Mukerjee played by Saeed Jaffrey in 'The Bengal Tiger' cracks me up.
