Was that 'Sooty' Sutcliffe?


After Lintom had jumped in the mud and was being watched by Pickering, a male teacher with gingery curly hair came storming out of the school - and he really looked like James Wynn who had played 'Sooty' Sutcliffe in Grange Hill around the same time. So I was really surprised when he was only on screen for a few seconds and wasn't mentioned in the cast list. WAS that James Wynn in a deliberate uncredited cameo? Was it a deliberate lookalike to make fans of the Hill laugh? Or was it an unintentional coincidence?

Yep, I definitely recognised that actor from Grange Hill or some such other TV show of the time.
