Claw, Annabel!

BOUNCY Annabel Croft has faced many eagle eyed opponents
over a tennis net. Now she has to share the limelight with Red
the hawk when her new adventure game show Interceptor
starts on ITV next Wednesday.

Former Hollywood stuntman Sean O'Kane stars in the title
role as the leather-clad Interceptor. The part was first
offered to Jon Iles, who played Det. Con. Dashwood in
The Bill.

But producer Michael Heyworth said "We used Jon in
the try-out and although he was very good, he just
wasn't evil enough."
