I've got Helga ready in Blue Blood in the role of Ana Zacharias

This one is a bit problematic in terms of how to list. IMDb lists in under the German title Blues Blut and also uses the German episode titles, in this case "Wo der Teufel wacht". This was, however, a co-production between several European countries, including the UK, and the shooting language looks to have been English (even if several actors, including Helga, are clearly dubbed), so using the English title might be more logical. Using the German version as the basis like IMDb does is also problematic due to the German version having aired the episodes completely out of order (with the pilot episode that introduces the characters and sets up the plot being split into two aired as episodes 7 and 8!) in 1990, but the correct year should be 1989 as the entire series was apparently aired that year (with episodes in the correct order) in Belgium (and maybe elsewhere too). The English title of this episode is "Devil's Lair".
The director of that episode was the French-born son of Spanish director Luis Bunuel and all but one of the cast are Spanish (or at least based in Spain in Helga's case), so I would imagine that they would have filmed it in Spanish, which doesn't help much in deciding what title to use :joy:

Helga's English doesn't seem to have been very good, I have an interview where she attempts to answer questions in English, but struggles and gives up and ends up answering in Spanish instead.

I see in the IMDb credits for that episode that there is also dwarf actor José Jaime Espinosa, who we have a topic for, so if you can bear to look at it again then some images of him would be appreciated.

And I'm assuming he's the same as this person: https://www.discogs.com/artist/3158565- ... 9-Espinosa

Do you still have the nice print of Il nostro agente a Casablanca? If so could you please get me some images of Lang Jeffries, as the only copies I could find online are all awful.

If you are familiar with José María Caffarel I could also use some images of him from the film to save me asking again at a later date
Here's Jeffries as Brian Kervin

Hi Johan, could you also have a very quick look at my request for Enzo Mondino in quick ID's for the western La morte non conta i dollari (1967) as piano player, only good shot found.
Thanks.

Thank you, and for the link, which does indeed appear to be him and would explain why his film work was rather sporadic if it was not his main profession. I have updated his biography accordingly.

Looks like him, but I hesitate to say so for sure based on that one, rather soft picture...

Also in your research have you come across any information regarding actors involved in English dubbing in Spain? I get the impression that most Italian-Spanish co-productions were dubbed in Italy, but there were plenty of Spanish films that have English dubs too. I think Eric Chapman may have been involved in English dubbing, but aside from one credit I have no information to corroborate this.
In case you're still interested in this, I've learned that an actor named Carl Rapp was heavily involved with English dubbing in Spain in the 1960s and 70s.

Hi Johan, our dear new generica Mafalda Amedei is everywhere, i did remember she was very busy in the 1960's especially in party scenes, we can see she was the Lella of the 1960's

I can see her in Fantomas se déchaîne (Fantomas minaccia il mondo) (1965) in one of your pics from the masked party, can you check if there are other pics of her, in case i will just post the pic already here on the forum.
