* PopCultureUrbanLegends: There's an internet rumor that it was actually (Creator/GaryOldman) who played this part. Given the disguising hair, hat, and mustache, it's very hard to tell what this guy really looks like. However, Gary Oldman was a well-established actor by this point. This show couldn't possibly have afforded him, and even if they'd blown their entire budget on forcing him into this contract, surely they would have used that for marketing?
