LOUISE JAMESON
|
|
|
|
Louise Jameson (born 20 April 1951 in Wanstead, London) is an English actress, most famous for playing Leela, the leather-clad barbarian warrior companion of the fourth Doctor in the long-running science fiction television series Doctor Who.
|
|
|
Louise has also appeared on Emmerdale (as Sharon Crossthwaite), The Omega Factor (as Dr. Anne Reynolds), Tenko (as Blanche Simmons), Bergerac (as Susan Young) and EastEnders (as Rosa di Marco). She recently worked on BBC Scotland soap River City as Viv Roberts.
|
Louise reprised the character of Leela in the charity special Dimensions in Time and for the Doctor Who audio plays produced by Big Finish Productions.
|
Louise attended the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and spent two years with the Royal Shakespeare Company, performing in Romeo and Juliet, The Taming of the Shrew, King Lear, Summerfolk, and Blithe Spirit. In 1995 she appeared in the RSC production of Botho Strauß's The Park. Other stage appearances include the first production of Peter Nichols's Passion.
Louise also works as a teacher of drama, directing youth productions of Shakespeare for local festivals. She also runs a Sunday Drama College, with branches in Tunbridge Wells and Eastbourne
|
Louise was a regular visitor in British prisons during the first few years of her career, and during the early 1970s she met Leslie Grantham at Leyhill Prison in Gloucestershire, while he was serving 12 years of a life sentence for murder. She encouraged Grantham to be an actor, and by 1985 he had secured the much acclaimed role of Den Watts in EastEnders

BOND
Burt has appeared in three James Bond films. In Goldfinger (1964) he played an Eastern agent counterpart of Bond's; in the spoof Casino Royale (1967) he played a general and in You Only Live Twice (1967) Kwouk played the part of a Japanese operative of Blofeld.
You Only live twice

TENKO
In 1968 he appeared in The Shoes of the Fisherman opposite Sir Laurence Olivier and Anthony Quinn. Kwouk also appeared as the honourable but misguided Major Yamauchi in the 1980s World War II television drama Tenko.
He has appeared in numerous films and television programmes. He may be most famous for playing Cato (Fong), Inspector Clouseau's man-servant. The running gag was that Cato was ordered to attack Clouseau when he least expected it to keep him alert, usually resulting in Clouseau's apartment being wrecked. Amid the chaos, the phone would ring and Cato would answer it with "Hello: Inspector Clouseau's residence," before dutifully handing the phone to his employer.
During the 1970s, Burt Kwouk featured in many UK television productions that called for a man of East Asian appearance. As a result, he became a familiar face in the United Kingdom and appeared as himself in The Harry Hill Show as well as several of Hill's live tours. From 2001 to 2004 he provided voice-overs on the spoof Japanese betting show Banzai and subsequently appeared in adverts for the betting company, Bet365.
Manchester, England, but was raised in Shanghai until he was about 17 years old. One of Kwouk's earliest film roles was in The Inn of the Sixth Happiness (1958) where he played the leader of a prison revolt who later aids the main character in heroically leading orphans to safety.
|
|
From 2002 to the show's end in 2010, he had a regular role in the long-running series Last of the Summer Wine, as Entwistle (2002–2010). His later work also includes voice acting in the audio theatre and video game genres
|
He was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2011 New Year Honours for services to drama

PINK PANTHER
|
|
|
COLIN BAKER
|
|
|
Colin Baker's first appearance as the Doctor occurred at the final minutes of The Caves of Androzani, where he delivered his first few lines. The closing title sequence for episode four features Colin's face instead of Peter Davison, and credits him as the Doctor before Peter Davison's own credit.
This was the first (and, to date, only) time that the new lead received top billing in the final story of an outgoing Doctor. Colin Baker then made his first full story debut the following week in The Twin Dilemma. It was the first time since 1966, and only the second time in the series' history, that a new leading actor's debut story was shown before the conclusion of the previous lead's season.
|
Colin made his first appearance in Doctor Who as Commander Maxil in the story Arc of Infinity (1983).
|
At the time of Colin Baker’s casting as Peter Davison's successor, he became the only "Doctor" actor to have appeared in the television series as another character prior to taking on the leading role.
The programme returned for its 23rd season in the autumn of 1986. with The Trial of a Time Lord.
Colin has returned to the role of the 6th Doctor in numerous audio stories and webcasts, the Dimensions In Time charity special, the video game Doctor Who: Destiny of the Doctors (for which he recorded new audio only) and stage play Doctor Who - The Ultimate Adventure.
