Pat Hutchence, mother of INXS singer Michael, was the show's make-up
artist. Before they were famous, INXS even performed at a cast and
crew party celebrating Channel 9's decision not to cancel the show.
Regular character Dennis Jamison wasn't in the first episode of the show, but his wife was. No, not Caroline, but his real-life wife. She played the Denham's irresponsible babysitter. She reappeared a few years later, as a stripper friend of nurse Dolly Davis. Kim Wran, who played Caroline Fielding, had a more glamorous background than her character. Her father is the former NSW Premier Neville Wran, and she once danced with Prince Charles! |
