Jake
The kid that played Jake is shown as last working on film/tv in 1998. I'm pretty sure I've seen him on TV lately, is it possible that's it's been missed or that he has a double (obviously a more grown up one)

I was really impressed with this little guy and would loved to have seen him on more TV shows/movies. Whatever happend to him?
shareI was gobsmacked at how a lad as young as him managed to deliver such a great performance.
Everything I can find shows him as last appearing in 1998. He is supplying the commentary, along with Robert Lindsay, on the Alan Bleasdale boxed set so he's still around. Just not acting, or so it appears.
I wrote to Alan Bleasdale a couple of years back, and had a great letter back from him. At the time, Barclay Wright (Jake) was playing rugby, and at university. A great performance from a brilliant child actor.
