An unsung heroine of mine...

Actress Vickie Gates, who played Leanne Powell in Brookside and Marilyn Chambers in The Bill.

Vickie also appeared on Celebrity Stars In Their Eyes once upon a long time ago as Maria McKee singing Show Me Heaven.

Tim Thomerson (in my favourite B-Movie of all time, Trancers)

Tom Atkins (been in many 80s cult classic horror/sci-fi movies)

Amanda Tapping always delivers strong performances in anything she does.

Stargate SG-1
Sanctuary
Motive (although only for one episode.)


And I think that Ben Browder was really good in Farscape and Stargate.

Claudia Black and Christopher Judge too.

I wouldn't say any of those are relative unknowns to be fair, they're possibly not household names but they're all pretty well known sci-fi names. Christopher Judge even moreso since he's voiced Kratos. He'll always be Teal'c to me though :flutter:. Sort of like how most people think Jason Momoa's big break was Game of Thrones... but us real ones will always remember him as Ronon Dex :joker:.

So I'm not the only one that remembers him on Stargate Atlantis on here.:dance:
