The Missing Link

Category: In The MediaChrisM @ 5:37 am

A couple of months ago I posted about Charlie from Lost, or rather the actor that played that role. I included a couple of screen shots from an earlier role (Geoffrey Shawcross) he played in the ‘Hetty Wainthropp Investigates’ drama. Today I caught another episode in which Dominic Monaghan looks more like a young man than a teenager, slowly bridging the gap, looks wise, between Geoffrey and Charlie. Anyway, the shots are below.

Hmm, seeing the pictures all together, maybe it was just the haircut, but watching the Hetty Wainthropp episode today, the cars looked a little more modern, and the character now has a love interest, so I am assuming there was at least a series or two between the episodes. The BBC Prime Satellite TV channel seems to do that quite a lot with their shows – jump around, and not follow chronological order. ‘My Family’ is the most obvious example of that – people keep getting younger and older, moving out of the house to live on their own, then the next day everyone is younger and living together again. Can’t really complain, it is still just brilliant to have any English language comedy and drama to watch, without having to download them 🙂

Charlie From Lost…

This time, I don’t think I will need Alex to come along and correct me on character names again 🙂 …

Irina recently noticed recently that ‘Charlie Pace’ (Dominic Monaghan) from Lost played ‘Geoffrey Shawcross’ in Hetty Wainthropp Investigates. There is around a 10 year gap between the two roles, but Ira’s eagle eyes spotted the similarity. This afternoon, I noticed an episode of Hetty etc. was on, so I flicked the satellite onto BBC Prime.

Anyway, I have included a couple of screen grabs from both Lost and Hetty Wainthropp Investigates for comparison, click the last two to see a higher resolution version.
