Re: Absent friends
John Cairney was in the episode Requiem of course. I also remember seeing him on TV in something alongside Hanan Gordon about 55 years ago and thinking they were very good actors. I'm sorry for all this years absent friends.

Re: Absent friends
looking back, 2023 wasn't a great year for those who worked on the series..from actors, to writers, stunt people, etc...I'm wondering just how many are left ? no doubt, the ' herd ' has been thinned....as time marches on
