ON AND OFF THE SET

Here's my friend, Neil Summers on the Italian location for My Name is Nobody. He co-starred with Terrence Hill. Neil, usually found working as a top-notch stuntman, was spotted in The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean by world-renowned producer/director Sergio Leone, who liked his look enough to fly him to Italy for the Nobody flick.

I met Dennis Waterman on the Desilu lot when I was working on My Three Sons; he was starring in Fair Exchange, another TV series shooting there at the time. Later, I was his guest in London (1967). Here he is having a pint while I sip on a warm scotch in a Hammersmith pub.
