Real toughy this one. My research (is that allowed) found an actor by the name of Stella Maris who appeared in the BBC soap "Eldeardo" a few years back. Is this the right track? alf

I think it could be Roger Walker riding a Shuttleworth Snap,as George Formby, winning the race and going on to star in Eldorado as Bunny Charlson

Oh dear,I wish I hadn't bothered trying to find out the answer,does that mean that Ian and me are both wearing the same sort of jacket ?
- thewitch - 25-10-2007
Ian's got a rather nice leather jacket, and you have a very special bike jacket, haven't you?
