Anyone else notice Sadler (the Grim Reaper) as the British husband?

After De Nomolos announces that he's "transmitting to every television channel throughout the world" we see a family at the table and the couple says, "My word." The husband holding The Times is William Sadler, the Grim Reaper. It's not on B&TBJ's IMDb page, or even Sadler's, but it's definitely him. I only noticed because I just saw Die Hard 2 again and he plays the villain Colonel Stuart.

I noticed it after I saw him in Alex Winter's opus "Freaked." I think he also plays Beelzebub in Bogus Journey.

I'm pretty sure he gets listed in the final credits though for that role as well...

Yes he does. Seriously, this was noticed by pretty much everyone like 25 years ago. Which is usually the case when a question begins with "Anyone else notice...?"

Well I bet no one noticed in the first one that on a page in the phone book in the time booth are the words CONINUUM TRANS - which is almost the name of the Continuum Transfunctioner in Dude Where's My Car and which I think Danny Leiner might have named as a very obscure nod to Bill & Ted
