The guy who plays Robert Trimbole in one of the Underbelly seasons is the father in the Crimsafe ads.

I think he also does voiceovers for the Purple Bricks ads.

His name, Roy Billing.

How about music? I had no idea for years that the guy who sang Oh Sherrie, Steve Perry, was the lead singer of Journey.
Same with Peter Gabriel being the former lead singer of Genesis
It goes on and on

The lead singer of Blur and Gorillaz being the same guy still baffles me whenever I think about it. Two very different bands.

I didn't know that Rita Wilson (Tom Hanks' wife) was a guest star in two of my favorite episodes of my favorite sitcoms. In 1999, Rita Wilson played the role of Mia in Frasier, where Frasier Crane meets children's author Mia before asking her out and the two begin dating. What Frasier doesn't realize is that Mia is an absolute double for his late mother, but Niles and Martin pick up on it straight away as do Daphne and Roz, despite the two women having only seen photographs of Mrs. Crane. That Mia has strong maternal instincts makes it all the more awkward, and when Frasier finally does realize he goes into an Oedipus-like meltdown.

Then in 2001 in the well-known Curb Your Enthusiasm episode 'The Doll', Rita Wilson plays the role of Ann, the wife of a Hollywood producer to whom Larry David and Jeff are shamelessly fawning to get a new sitcom off the ground. However, this goes awry when Larry cuts the hair of Ann's daughter's doll Judy, enraging Ann who insists Larry replace or repair the expensive doll and also views him with great suspicion from this point on. This is hardly surprising given that Larry went into her daughter's bedroom and started playing dolls with her, a series of other misunderstandings involving the bathroom (Cheryl gets the worst of this), and Larry's bumbling attempts at fixing the doll situation which earn both him and Jeff Susie's considerable wrath in the process.

WTF? He pops up in obscure roles a lot in the 80s. Same with Braddock at the start of the film. I was disappointed it wasnt a set up to see him later. Every film benefits when they include more Keith David.
