Default PC Tony Stamp axed from The Bill after 22 years for being \'too old\'


PC Tony Stamp wrestles baddy

I think he is a good actor
just to get rid of him due to his age is wrong.

I remember this happening to a five news reader,but if he still is able to do stunts and action scenes,he age can't be affecting his work.

Is there not some law against sacking someone because of their age?

lol ... how did you manage to work in a shot at new labour? haha

ps
"Is there not some law against...."
no there isn't... not for actors or people in the arts. If your pushing 60 and the role is a character who is 20 to 30 then that choice isn't ageist it's an artistic/creative choice. They ( the producers) can claim he ( the actor) is too old for the role now.
Ps who said he was sacked due to his age? Actors of all ages get the boot all the time.
