Ian Thompson was in a mini-series called ‘Freud’ in 1984, which I saw recently. It’s available only on Youtube. He plays a colleague of Freud’s who disagrees with a weird treatment of putting cocaine in a patient’s nose (as far as I remember!) then comes round to it.

I saw Trevor Bowen in a 1979 BBC adaptation of an Elizabeth Jane Howard novel, ‘After Julius,’ in which he played quite an unpleasant character. He’s done loads of other work, though, and writes as T.R.Bowen (screenplays and some novels).

John Nettles got quite famous here with his roles in Bergerac and Midsomer Murders, but I think rather few connects him with his role in AFAW. (As you said he also looked quite different).

The Midsomer Murders episodes have been on constant replay on a TV Channel here, and I think I have watched nearly all of them (several times).

The actors who seemed to have the biggest post-AFAW success were Barbara Flynn and John Nettles whereas Patrick Troughton, Margery Mason, John McKelvey, Colins Douglas and Campbell, and Leslie Nunnerly were already established. Always fun to see actors so shockingly early in their careers as to be almost unrecognizable, such as John Nettles and Lynda Bellingham (who became Mrs. Herriot on All Creatures). Donald Pickering (as Mr. Fraser who buys the works) was a surprise for me as I enjoyed him in the slightly later Palliser series as Adolphus “Dolly” Longstaffe (one of literature’s great appellations). 

 

This series was such a treasure chest of acting, writing, and directing talent. Good to see that DVDs and broadcasts of the show are widely available.

 

See, Mr. Finch, sometimes “good guys do finish first”!
