Photographs Previous Pages: A selection of scenes from "Space: 1999", including a behind-the-scenes shot of Nick Tate portraying Alan Carter This Page: Top Left - Tony Anholt as Edward Strauss in ATV's "The Strauss Family". Middle Top - Tony as seen in Granada's "A Family At War". Top Right - Also from Granada, in the box at the "Crown Court". Bottom Left and Right - Tony Anholt as the "dynamic new edi- tor" in Yorkshire TV's "Kate", including Pene- lope Keith "before she became Penelope Keith" Apology Department In the first part of our interview with Tony Anholt, some of our captioning went awry. On Page 6 of "SiG" 7 the first caption refers to the shot on Page 5. The other two captions should have had the 'right' and 'left' excha- nged. On Page 8 the first two captions refer to photographs on Page 7. If we were a Marvel mag we'd offer a No Prize if you understand !

THEATRE OR TELEVISION ? Theatre. That's the nature of this business, anything can happen. As I said earlier I was actually going to quit the industry in '75 and suddenly was offered a year's work in "Space". WHICH DO YOU PREFER WORKING IN - THEATRE OR TELEVISION As a medium, theatre. It's contact with the audience, it's the fact that, as an actor, you're more in control of what you're doing because you're in command of your- self in a way that you're not on camera. You can be bri- lliant, but if you're not being seen you might as well forget it. It depends really on the part you're playing, the production you're in, as to whether it's a good ex- perience or not. HAVE YOU DONE ANY FEATURE FILMS ? I've done films for television, obviously. I have been in a film years ago, but that was really a glorified extra. It was a film with Tony Curtis, I couldn't even remember what it was called. No, I've been unlucky in that I missed out on a couple of films. I did a play called "Boys in the Band", my first West End play, and I came out of it quite well and it was through it that the television thing began. I went on tour with it in 1969/70. I think we had two weeks to go and Mary Selway, again, wanted me to go to Madrid to meet a Producer making a film with Michael Caine and Omar Sharif. They wanted me as one of the third or fourth characters and wanted to fly me out on a Tuesday evening and, if they liked me, they'd buy me out of the tour. If they didn't like me they'd fly me back and all I would have missed would have been one show, my understudy could've done it, but the Producer of the show wouldn't release me and the only way I could've gone would have been to break my contract and become black-listed by Equ- ity, and I wasn't about to do that. That was one possible Golden Opportunity missed. The other one was a couple of years later. It was a film with no big stars, but it was very interesting with four or five equal lead characters. It was all set to go and then the money dropped out. ON BEHALF OF THE EDITORS AND READERS OF "SiG", THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND OBVIOUS INTEREST. . . . OK, well nice to meet you.
