The Winds of War (TV mini series) - episode 7: "Into the Maelstrom" (1983) as Russian officer making a toast at the Kremlin. Yet another part as a Russian for Geoffrey in this famous and expensive American production shot all over Europe.

...e la vita continua (1984) (TV mini series) as German businessman. Yet another German role for Geoffrey, and yet another time where he dubs himself in Italian. He's also credited, but unfortunately, I don't have the credit image...

All'ombra della grande quercia (1984) (TV mini series). I've not been able to find this mini series, but according to the listing in Radiocorriere TV, he plays a German official and is credited as Geoffrey Gerald Copleston.

La piovra (1984) (TV series) credited, as Alfredo Ravanusa. This is Geoffrey's most widely remembered role, and he appears in all six episodes of this very famous series, playing a powerful bank owner with ties to the mafia. He would later return for the second series as well.

Vediamoci chiaro (1984) credited as Geoffrey Gerald Copleston, as Commendator Mercalli. This is another role for Geoffrey that's more substantial than usual, and he appears in several scenes as a business rival to Johnny Dorelli.

I cinque del Condor (1985) credited, as Harker. Yet another unusually large role for Geoffrey, who appears in several scenes as the cynical president of a mining company, and he dubs his own dialogue for the English-language version.

Scemo di guerra (1985) credited as Gerald Geoffrey Copleston, as German commander. Yet another German role for Geoffrey in this well-known Dino Risi film.

Assisi Underground (1985) credited, as Police chief Bertolucci. I assume he dubs himself in the English version, but I've only been able to find an Italian dub, in which Geoffrey is dubbed by someone else.

La piovra 2 (1986) (TV series) credited, as Alfredo Ravanusa. Geoffrey reprises his role as the banker Alfredo Ravanusa in the second series of this highly popular mafia drama. This time, however, he only appears in the first two episodes before getting killed off.
