| Not bad.... he really wasn't in it that much. He played a cardiologist who was the former boyfriend of a nurse in the show --- he handled the medical lingo pretty well. And no American accent --- they left him with his British one. |

No, just arrogant, which was what his character was supposed to be. However, having seen him for so long in EE, it was difficult to put that "insanity" thing aside....  |

I am watching a not so good series called "North and South" from 2004. Jo Joyner (Tanya) played a small part in the first episode... a sister to one of the main characters. We will see if she turns up again...
UPDATE: Oh, she showed up again alright. Boy, she sure has learned a lot about acting since this was made. She is really not very good in this. A ton of overacting.... |

| OK.....this kind of a 'before EE ' but I was just watching the movie Layercake and saw Mr. Michael Moon. I think his character is called Tiptoes or something like that. I almost didn't recognize him with longer hair and he's probably a good 15 or 20 lbs heavier. He certainly knows how to play dark characters! |

| This is defo before she was on Corrie, but I am watching a period piece called "The Grand" about a large luxury hotel in post WWI Manchester. Who pops up as a chamber maid? Leanne Battersby Platt Barlow Platt! Plus the guy from True Blood, Bill. Stephen Mosely I think his name is. He is a WWI PTSD vet. Pretty good so far. |

I found Jim Branning in a movie called "East is East" about a Pakistani family in Manchester during the 1970's. It is funny to hear a Manc accent coming out of Jim Branning!
I have only been watching for a few minutes, but a classic line already!! "Your Granddad will drop a bollock if he finds out you are courting a Paki." Jim is the granddad in question...
Edit: The actor who played Ash is in it too! As well as the older sister from Bend it Like Beckham... A treasure trove to be sure! |

Yes! I meant to post that awhile ago but forgot. I think that Michael has lost weight since then. |

Sounds like a nice upgrade, but please don't take our comments as a critique.........only a commentary on how easily confused Spurs and I can get |
