I don't hate Roger Davis at all. Although, I will have to say, as far as I've gotten in viewing, Dirk Wilkins is my least favorite. Vampires DO NOT look good with caterpillar mustaches. Can you imagine feeling that thing tickle your neck as he's biting you? Nas-tee!
I actually like him as Peter Bradford/Jeff Clark. Towards the end of the Jeff Clark storyline, I WAS SO SICK and tired of the non-stop Victoria-shreiking of "Jeff don't go!", "Jeff don't leave me!", "My love is the only thing that will save us!" Ugh! No thanks to Betsy Durkin (I'm sure she's a lovley cat-loving person in real life), she ruined what could have been romantic with the dramatic screaming of every single line.
Actually, the whole storyline of Peter Bradford was botched when Professor Stokes said that Peter took over Jeff's body. Up until that point, it was obvious that Peter was transported to the future when he was hung (just as Victoria was), and had amnesia. What a sorry, sorry conclusion to that storyline.
Ned Stuart was not on long enough to really form an opinion, but he did seem awfully incestuous with his poor sister! I'm up to DVD Collection 15, so I cannot wait to see this Charles Tate incarnation!
