Yes, I saw that listed but I thought I knew that show and didn't
remember seeing her but possibly I was remembering the character
names from Peter Robinson's books rather that the TV show based
on them..  I've read several of his books and have 8 more listed
to get from the Library eventually..

Have we heard how old he is supposed to be? I agree with you but
he may be playing a part that is younger than the actor is/looks.

I suppose though as an experienced surgeon he would have to be at
the youngest late 30's. However Catz is 56 so it's almost possible,
and they could use makeup to make her look older rather than younger
like usual.. B)
