adam436 Posted February 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 According to IMDB, he only appeared in 14 episodes as Gordon Macklin. I know IMDB doesn't have 100% accuracy, especially for Australian TV series, but it certainly felt like he appeared more than that. I guess that goes to show how great Ron was, that he could make his presence felt and make a character so memorable with so few appearances.

IMDB is all over the place especially everything after 2005 contributed by viewers in other countries. Not one to toot my own horn but I've done a fair bit of groundskeeping on certain shows (credit order, writers, etc) including H&A which I've managed to keep relatively accurate in places over the years. But RIP Ron. Read Wikipedia he was also an MBE and recieved An Order of Australia and turned out for his State for Cricket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Ranger 1 Posted February 21, 2020 Report Share Posted February 21, 2020 IMDb listing only 3 episodes for him as Peter Moss is definitely wrong. However, that period from 1988 to early 1996 tends to be fairly accurate, mainly because I suspect someone was updating it by the 7Two showings. Gordon was a character who only tended to appear for an episode or two here and there, and then got talked about a lot when he wasn't on screen, so I wouldn't be surprised if it is only 14 episodes.

Sally Keating Posted February 22, 2020 Report Share Posted February 22, 2020 Yeah 14 episodes actually sounds about right to me. His appearances often had lasting impact for the likes of Stacey, Roo or Brett. But the appearances themselves were fleeting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
