" ANNIE'S BAR " 1996 - " IN THE RED " 1998

On 19th March 1996, I was at the studios in Teddington for my second day running on an episode of
 " Annie's Bar " , the politically based up-to date drama about a newly elected Conservative Member of Parliament. My first day on an episode of this series, I was playing the part of a front bench Member of Parliament and this particular episode included the actual Member of Parliament for Grimsby, Austin Mitchell, who thought that those of us playing Members of Parliament were looking like the genuine article.
Two years later in 1998, I was in Oxford to be in an episode of " In the Red", a BBC Two series of 60 minute episodes starring Rachel Fielding, Siobhan Redmond, Sally Phillips and Rebecca Front.
" In the Red " was about a series of killings of bank managers that has London in turmoil, all the way up to Parliament. The killer regularly calls about his handywork, but only to a street-wise and usually rather tipsy, radio reporter,about to be sacked for his habitual irreverence toward his station and the BBC.
While everything seems to point to a lead singer of a rock group famous for the " In the Red " music which has been connected to the killings, in a typical British mystery fashion, there are also other sub-plots to be considered.
