        I never placed a single bet this festival. First time in ages.

            Remember, keep as far away from the ball as you can and the other side will leave you alone

                Watching Inspector Morse. Got distracted by spotting an Amstrad PCW8256 on the desk of an academic.

                (The academic is played by Roger Lloyd-Pack, of blessed memory.)

                  Now the end credits are telling me he spelt his name Roger Lloyd Pack, no hyphen

                  Sorry, Trigger

                    Not necessarily. Actors often get credited as all sorts of weird and wonderful versions of their name, especially if it's early in their career. Sometimes it's because the actor changes his mind (eg. Laurence/Larry Fishburne), sometimes it's because the filmmakers don't give a tulip about a minor actor.

                      Wikipedia has him hyphenated, and is NEVER EVER wrong.

                      But the BBC's obituary has him unhyphenated, and the BBC is also NEVER EVER wrong.

                      IMDB also has him unhyphenated.

                      As the BBC paid for his services on numerous occasions and thus saw what he called himself on invoices, and IMDB is fuelled by obsessive geeks, I'm going with unhyphenated

                      I've also discovered from Wikipedia that he had a role in The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover. I saw that in the cinema, and have it on DVD, but the DVD is still in its wrapper. I'll watch it soon and see if he's unhyphenated there.

                      I'll also check to see if the omission of the Oxford comma in the title is Peter Greenaway's fault, or just Wikipedia again
