"Matlock" steel player

Post by Ian Rae »

Just watching Matlock S2 Ep10 - country singer accused of a hit-and-run. Plenty of steel in the the first scene. Who is the player? There's at least one clear shot of him. Episode first aired 1987

Someone asked the same question here not too long ago, I don't think anyone had the answer.

I see he did a lot of TV work - that makes sense

Thanks, Earnest

This Doug/Earnest/Bovine thing has been confusing but I have it now. Nothing to do with Doug Earnest.

And all because my wife was watching an old legal soap! :)
