Actually, in a related post, I checked and found at least 4 DVDs of
films he is in. Plus three others which I have seen, all but one of
which I found worth watching.

OTOH, he has 67 previous films on IMDb's list.

I did see the Pet Detective series (well, at least the first and maybe
the African one) and I really did enjoy them.=20
