Patrick Wymark on the cover of the Anglia editio of the TV TIMES for the play THE SEVENTH WAVE
Interesting comment on regional accents. In 1963 #PatrickWymark starred as a Grimsby trawler skipper in THE SEVENTH WAVE, but it was noted in his home town that he had to fall in with the other actors who adopted an East Anglian drawl.

Congratulations to @hannahhowe.bsky.social for locating this odd graphic of #PatrickWymark which may just have flopped the image from his PLANE MAKERS debut in September but ends up making him look like #JeffMorrow in THIS ISLAND EARTH.
Based on a short story by W.W.Jacobs, Olwen Wymark's grandfather, who inspired #PatrickWymark 's stage name. In a way, it's a pity that Wymark and #RachelHerbert didn't do a TV remake of FOOTSTEPS IN THE FOG rather than TOP OF THE LADDER in 1967.
