Like It, to 1993 in the BBC TV series 'Every Silver Lining'! His
Cushing connection was playing Karl in Hammer's sequel to 'The Curse of
Frankenstein', The REVENGE of Frankenstein in 1958. In quite limited

appear in some classic television dramas and british movies. From the
BBC Colditz serial, ITC's Man In Suitcase, Doomwatch, Ace of Wands in
the 1970's, BBC's Z Cars series, and in 1976, 'The Last of The
