David Yip - The Chinese Detective Leigh Lawson - The Travelling Man Nicholas Ball - Hazell Richard Mulligan (Burt Campell) - Soap The oldtimers on here will probably remember those characters. 'Soap' was an absolutely hilarious series and was much watch tv in our house back in the day. |

Thanks for reminding me about Soap and Burt, he was a great character, and Shelley was a workshy intelligent fella who thought most jobs were beneath him, thanks Slippy.
Tom Chance Alison Little both the leading characters in Chance in a Million, Brenda Blethyn and Simon Callow were marvellous. |

More modern would be Ed Harris, Sir Anthony Hopkins and Ed Harris in Westworld.
And that completes a full list of all my favourite show, the only shows that I can think of that I've watched more than once, except Cheers which I've only seen once. |

meant to include Evan Rachel Wood instead of Ed Harris twice

Pamela Stephenson on Not the nine O'clock news. Gorgeous to look at, very funny and great at impersonations. Sadly I now watch very little TV apart from Bloomberg finance, Sky News and various sports channels. The main channels are trash.
