One of the references in the main article needs some clarification, even though my source is first hand. I knew the actor Alastair Mackenzie who played the young Michael Pelham. He was born in 1959 in Chipping Campden. I knew him when he played Prince Arthur in King John and Prince Richard of York in Richard III at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-on-Avon in Autumn 1970. I was his stage-brother then. This can be verified from a theatre programme, but Alastair and I were replacement cast, taking over from Colin Mayes and David Allen, who played the parts earlier in the season up until August 1970. I also know he played the title role in the film David Copperfield, and probably appeared in 'Black Beauty' in the 1970s. I have no idea what became of him after that.

There is another actor with the same name Alastair Mackenzie, born in 1970 in Scotland, who went on to play Archie in the TV series 'Monarch of the Glen' much later, and is probably the actor quoted in the later appearances in the reference.Elmbeard (talk) 23:59, 11 December 2019 (UTC)Elmbeard[reply]
