Massive confusion
According to the BFI database there are TWO actors named Robert East. The Robert East known for Blackadder died in 1990, and the other Robert East, known for Spooks. Here's a clip of Robert East (interrogating) in Spooks and it's DEFINITELY a different actor to the one in Blackadder. So IMDb and Wikipedia have got them both confused into one. I'll do my best to amend. Crisso (talk) 03:27, 1 October 2011 (UTC)


 * I aways thought, under the rules of the actors' union Equity, that there could not be more than one actor with a given name. If there are in fact two actors called Robert East, this would support the belief that the Black Adder actor died in 1990. Can any one corroborate this? I am going to work on the article and put back the info that can only be about that actor. Jack1956 (talk) 11:10, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
