Cahill, Sally
Played Governor's niece Barbara Davidson, who ends up inside Wentworth in episode 17 on a drugs charge to Erica Davidson's embarrassment. May have played Greg's mother in the film The Sum of Us, although the character looked a good deal older than the actress should be. In a Water Rats episode definitely played the mother of a boy dragged from the bay whose clothes she had to identify.

Prisoner ..... Officer Yates, Glynis Johnson, Willie Beecham
Picnic at Hanging Rock ..... Miss Lumley
Chilvers, Simon
Was the policeman who investigated the Wentworth Fire from episode 327. Apparently looks like a good authority figure as he was the President of the Commission into British nuclear testing in the film Ground Zero, and another policeman in Mushrooms. In Mushrooms he was the honest cop who moved into the house to 2 elderly ladies who were trying to dispose of a body.
Prisoner ..... Det Sgt Terry Farmer

Clarke, Andrew
Was the first version of Geoff Maynard, the husband of Judy Bryant's daughter Lori. More recognisable (at least in Britain) for playing Matt McGregor in Snowy River - The McGregor Saga. Matt in the USA is a keen follower of Mr Clarke's career so more info and pics are always coming! Was on It'll Be Alright on the Night from his role in Snowy River with a sneezing horse disrupting a scene. Was Simon Templar (The Saint!) in a pilot for a failed (USA I think) version of the series.

Had a guest role in early episodes of Home & Away as Kerry Barlow, a battered wife. More recently appeared as Jean Diamond of the Arson Squad in Fire, where yet again she met a sticky end. Played one of the title roles in Kitty & the Bagman - a film I have now seen but which wasn't great apart from some amusing catfights between members of the Prisoner cast.

Prisoner ..... Shop Woman, Flora Jenkins
Mad Max 2 ..... Big Rebecca
Clifford, Colleen
Played Edith Wharton in early episodes of Prisoner - she was engineered into the plot by living next door to Joyce Martin's aunt, and with that certain inevitability, we all knew she would end up inside Wentworth. Her contribution to the film The Coca-Cola Kid was to be a passenger in a plane carrying a sick kangaroo ..... I am not totally certain due to lack of credits, but she looked very like the old lady who was ushered out of the hospital in the last episode of A Country Practice as the hospital was burning down.
Prisoner ..... Edith Wharton
Coca-Cola Kid, The ..... Mrs Haversham
Country Practice ..... old lady
Clifton, Jane
Played Margot Gaffney, and Yvonne - a friend of Marilyn Mason in early episodes. Had a guest role in Flying Doctors as the mother of many children who fosters a little fairground boy after his grandmother dies. A small part in the strange sci-fi film As Time Goes By as the Mechanic.

Halifax fp - "Sweet Dreams" ..... Constable Wilkes
Connor, Shane
In the Bite he looked a lot more respectable than his Prisoner junkie days when he played the government man who persuades the couple to try and catch the heroin traffickers. In Neighbours played a man who befriended the Alessi twins when someone was threatening them, only to be discovered as the man himself - cunning eh? In the latest Halifax fp was a man whose friends were killed in a massacre at a service station and convinced himself that he was responsible.
