Kenny Doughty was born on 27 March 1975 in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England, UK. He is an actor and director, known for Vera (2011), Snowpiercer (2013) and Stella (2012). He has been married to Ashley Jensen since August 2023. He was previously married to Caroline Carver.- David Bradley was born on 27 September 1953 in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England, UK. He is an actor, known for Kes (1969), Zulu Dawn (1979) and Redemption (2013).
- Like the character he played in the BBC series To Serve Them All My Days (1980), John Duttine hails from a mining town, but in Yorkshire rather than Wales. He was born in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England, but raised in Bradford, West Yorkshire, England, along with his 4 brothers, and his nephew Joe Duttine. He attended Buttershaw High School in Buttershaw, Bradford, West Yorkshire, England. When he realised in his teens that "acting was the only thing I did well," he switched to drama, training at the Drama Centre in London. His first job after drama school was playing three characters in "Hamlet" for the Citizens Theatre Company in Glasgow, Scotland. On joining the Glasgow Repertory Company, he did most of the familiar repertory stints including Antony in "Antony and Cleopatra," Danton in "Danton's Death," and Danforth in "The Crucible."
By the mid-1970s, he had shifted mainly to television and film. Then in 1979-80 came the opportunity to play the hero of To Serve Them All My Days (1980), arguably one of the more demanding roles in his filmography. His main fear about playing David Powlett-Jones was the Welsh accent: "I was rather worried that I wouldn't hit the right note. I would be angry as hell if I heard a Yorkshire accent that was wrong." Clearly, John got the accent and just about everything else about this performance exactly right. As the New York Times noted upon the series' first American broadcast in 1982, "Mr. Duttine is, even in this talented company, exceptional."
Following that triumph, for which he won the TV Times magazine's Best Actor award, John appeared in numerous programmes and series for British television throughout the 1980s, drawing particular acclaim for The Day of the Triffids (1981), a sci-fi BBC series which has become a cult sci-fi favourite, and The Outsider (1983), a 6-part ITV series about a newspaper editor set in John's native Yorkshire. He also returned to the stage occasionally, and in 1989 was reunited with Charles Kay, his nemesis (Alcock) of To Serve Them All My Days (1980), for the original cast of "The Woman in Black."
In the early 1990s, John's life appeared to hit a rough patch. His relationship with long-time girlfriend Carolyn Hutchinson
broke up (they had a son, Oscar, in 1981). John began a relationship with Mel Martin, with whom he had co-starred in the ITV film Talking to Strange Men (1992), and starred in the comedic BBC series Ain't Misbehavin (1994). In 1997, he and Mel bought an 18th century farmhouse with eight acres on land in Cornwall, England. In 1992 he played guest character Paul Melthorn in the long running, ITV drama series Heartbeat (1992), before playing the permanent character sergeant George Miller between 2005 to 2009.
Some other regular roles include playing DI Eric Temple in the BBC series Out of the Blue (1995), Michael Hawkins in the ITV series Touching Evil (1997), Mark Waters in the ITV series The Jury (2002), Gavin Street in the Channel 4 series The Courtroom (2004), Douglas Taylor in the BBC series WPC 56 (2013), and Eric Benton in the ITV series Paranoid (2016).
Today John continues to appear regularly in guest-starring roles on British television, as well as on stage. During 2003, he toured in the
well-received "Art" with co-stars Les Dennis and Christopher Cazenove. John also does voice-over work for adverts and documentaries, as well as radio plays for the BBC, putting his versatile voice to very effective use. - Actress

Harold Goodwin (22 October 1917 - 3 June 2004) was an English actor born in Wombwell, Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England.
Goodwin trained at RADA and was a stage actor at Liverpool repertory theatre for 3 years. He appeared in numerous British films of the 1950s and 1960s, usually playing 'flat cap' wearing working class characters from Northern England or low ranks in the military.
He had significant parts in the war films The Dam Busters (playing Guy Gibson's batman, 'Crosby'), The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957) and The Longest Day. He can also be seen in films such as The Ladykillers, Sea of Sand, Angels One Five and The Cruel Sea (in which he was the ASDIC operator).
He also made hundreds of British TV appearances in programmes such as Minder (as Dunning, episode Get Daley!, 1984) and a notable role in All Creatures Great and Small. Goodwin was a 'staple' of the popular 1980s sitcom, That's My Boy. His last major television appearance was playing the part of Joss Shackleton, father to Vera Duckworth, in the ITV soap opera Coronation Street (1960) in the early 1990s.
He also appeared in an episode of One Foot in the Grave (1990) as a window cleaner.- Producer

Michael Parkinson was educated at Barnsley Grammar School. He left at
the age of 16 and his ambition of becoming a professional cricketer was
dashed when he was rejected by Yorkshire County Cricket Club. He turned
to journalism, worked on several local newspapers in Yorkshire before
joining the Manchester Guardian. Michael covered all sorts, from chip
pan fires in Oldham to political conferences. He joined the Observer to
write about sport and became a columnist with The Sunday Times.
His first work in television was as a current affairs producer at
Granada Television. He joined the BBC as a reporter for "24 Hours". In
1969 he became the presenter of Granada's Cinema series. In 1971 he
presented Thames Television's regular afternoon show, Teabreak. The BBC
decided to give the still relatively young broadcaster his own evening
chat show, "Parkinson", the same year. With his working class accent,
Michael Parkinson was a breath of fresh air and over the next 11 years
he interviewed many of the leading celebrities of the time.
The programme established him as one of the best known faces on
television, and his fame resulted in his writing for the first edition
of the British Cosmopolitan Magazine and his appearance with Jon Pertwee on
the front of the Radio Times. His relaxed chat show was axed in 1982.
Parkinson moved to ITV and became part of the Famous Five that launched
TV AM. In 1998 the BBC resurrected "Parkinson" and the ageing presenter
found himself back on prime-time. He presents his own show on BBC Radio
2, during which he plays much of his beloved jazz music. He maintains
notoriety for his outspoken comments about other television
personalities, the Government and the state of British sport. Michael
currently claims he will retire before he's 70 and set about writing
the book of his life.- Actor

Fletcher was born in Grimethorpe, Barnsley, South Yorkshire, and attended Willowgarth Secondary School.
Like many of the actors in Kes, Fletcher had no formal acting experience, but almost immediately found television work when the film was universally praised.
He had a regular television role as layabout Raymond Shepherd, one of Diana Dors's wayward sons in the popular comedy series Queenie's Castle. The show was first broadcast on bonfire night in 1970 and ran for two years. 18 episodes were made each lasting 30 minutes.
Shortly before Queenie's Castle came to an end in September 1972, in the January of that year he was seen as a football team captain in Jack Rosenthal's BAFTA nominated drama Another Sunday and Sweet F.A., which was part of Granada Television's Sunday Night Theatre series.
For the rest of the 1970s, Fletcher worked in various television plays, including four BBC Play for Today films between 1973-1978. He also made another successful movie, playing one of the ship's radio officers in the British thriller Juggernaut in 1974, starring Richard Harris and Anthony Hopkins.
In 1978, he appeared in the ITV movie Clouds of Glory, starring Felicity Kendal, written by Melvyn Bragg and directed by Ken Russell.
In November 1982, Fletcher played Chalkie Whitely's son Bob in two episodes of the ITV soap opera Coronation Street. By this time, actress Lynne Perrie was established in the show as Ivy Tilsley. Perrie had played Fletcher's mother in Kes and had worked alongside him in Queenie's Castle ten years before. Consequently, Fletcher had acted alongside Perrie's brother Duggie Brown in Another Sunday and Sweet F.A.
In December 1980, Fletcher appeared in four episodes of Emmerdale Farm as law breaking Derek Warner. He later reprised the role in 1984 for a further four episodes. When the character reappeared again in 1985, he was re-cast and actor Dennis Blanch took on the part until 1986.
In the 1990s, Fletcher continued to act regularly on television and in film. He had a regular role as Mr. Smithson in the ITV drama series Children's Ward. He also appeared as farmer Sam Carver in the "Bitter Harvest" episode of Heartbeat in 1992, and played George Milton in the "Tender" episode of Peak Practice in 1995. - Actress

Peter 'Biff' Byford is a British vocalist for the heavy metal band
Saxon. Born on 5 January 1951, in Barnsley, Yorkshire, Byford formed
a group with guitarists Graham Oliver and Paul Quinn, bassist
Steve Dawson and drummer Pete Gill in 1976. Prior to this, Byford had
been the vocalist with Blue Condition from about 1970.
In 1978, the group became Saxon and released a
self-titled album in 1979. Coinciding with the so-called New Wave of
British Heavy Metal at the turn of the decade, Saxon had eight British
Top 40 albums and five Top 40 singles between 1980 and 1986. After this
Saxon declined in popularity, eventually leading to a split in 1995
with Oliver and Dawson forming a new band with the same name. Byford's
Saxon maintained a recording and touring career centered on Germany for
much of the 1990s before coming back into worldwide attention with
2007's The Inner Sanctum. In April the same year, Byford released his
autobiography, entitled Never Surrender.- Writer
