Where do I recognise Martin Kemp from?

He played Steve in EastEnders and was also in the original Krays biopic in 1990. He was very recently in The Cars That Made Britain Great due to his enthusiasm for motoring.

Robert Portal – Rupert Julian-Jones

Rupert is the British Consul in Tangier – the Birds are quite suspicious of him.

Portal has had a range of movie roles – from Equerry in The King’s Speech and David Orton in My Week with Marilyn to a small part in The Iron Lady and playing the King in The Huntsman: Winter’s War.

Charlie Quirke – Travis Stubbs 

Travis is Tracey’s missing son who has finally been allowed to fly the nest and go on a gap year… to Spain.

Where do I recognise Charlie Quirke from?

Quirke had a brief appearance in Casualty ten years ago – but he’s also the son of Pauline Quirke (who plays Sharon), in real life.
