mick miller Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 I was one of the actors in the 'history of chocolate' interactive display at Cadbury world for a few years. I had several inconsequential extra parts in the TV series 'Charles' and in one scene played one of his bodyguards as he entered Parliament, me and my dog were the faces (although mine was definitely soft focus) of the outdoor channel winter indents last year. Likely there have been other times over the years when my mates have been too tight to pay real actors or run out of budget. One of them is all big budget stuff now so it's unlikely I'll be making many more guest appearances anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scully Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Have been interviewed on local BBC radio about the proposed handgun ban, but the most embarrassing was one I did after getting off a plane at Manchester airport on returning from Greece during a heat wave they had. I didn't know they were having a heatwave until I got back to England and just assumed Greece was always that hot ( no wonder I was brown ) but apparently there had been some fatalities due to the heat. I have a pretty broad accent coming from Cumbria, and when the reporter played back the tape I realised just how broad it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
