    • Trivia
      Despite his tough-guy image when playing Ken Boon, Michael Elphick was scared of riding Boon's motorcycle. "I find bikes much too dangerous. It's Boon who rides them, not me. I don't drive a car either, for the same reason, really."

    Great Show

    As I was watching, I noticed so many young actors and actresses that went on to have their own shows. I have seen many in other shows through out the years. I really enjoyed some of the Keystone Cop's antics!
