Ok I am going to ask two questions this week to make up for last weeks

Which character did John Hillerman not play? 10 pts

A) Father Paddy McGuiness, a Catholic priest from Ireland

B) Jonathan Quayle Higgins III, major-domo for Robin Masters' estate

C) Don Luis Mongueo, an heir to the throne of Costa De Rosa

D) Tyrone Carrington, a Texan rodeo owner

Number 2
Jeff MacKay played three different characters over the course of the show: Who were they? 10 pts for each name

This a chance to get 40 pts 8)
Hmmmm is the first one a trick question? He didn't play Tyrone Carrington, but he did play Elmo Ziller his half brother in the episode.

1) Lt. MacReynolds aka 'Mac'
2) Jim Bonnick
3) The gate guard in the pilot episode of the show.

D. Hillerman didn't play Tyrone Carrington, although steveadl is right in calling it a tricky question.

Jeff MacKay played:

Ski, the gate guard at Hickam Field in the pilot

Lt. "Mac" MacReynolds, a Naval Intelligence officer in the first three seasons until his death

Jim Bonnick, a con artist with many aliases in later episodes beginning with Mac's Back

1. Missing Melody is the title.

2. Don't remember his characters name, but the actor is Shavar Ross, the kid who played Dudley on Diff'rent Strokes. Half credit? :wink:

I also just caught Dead Man's Channel Saturday. Magnum said his mother's advice was to become an orthodontist. I really like that episode. More than many people, I think.

Well... this could be taken several different ways. We could be talking the Lady Ashley... or Velma Troubshaw.

For Lady Ashley... Episode would either be Computer Date (Season 2) and Echoes of the Mind (Season 5). For VT, It would be Foiled Again (Season 3).

Lady Ashley's real name was Elizabeth (and no last name was ever given) and Velma's name was obviously... Velma...

Its pathetic how much I know of Higgins' history... if only I could parlay this into making money in real life. Oh well.. onto the Pro Bowl and watch Calvin Johnson kick some butt!

Lady Ashley from Echoes of the Mind with Sharon Stone, season 5.

The Lady Ashley was also played by a different woman in an earlier episode. Neither one appeared to be "built like the Prince Albert memorial" though. :wink:

I watch this scene in slow mo 3 times and the numbers that I saw that he pushed in were 57777 those are the numbers I saw so I am just assuming the first two numbers were also 5, because as you well know all the phone numbers in TV and Movie land begins with 555 so in my opinion Robin Masters phone number is 555-7777 :lol:

...
Since this is the only post I found (by using the search) concerning Robin Masters personal phone number, I would just like to confirm this, even if the post was made years ago. When I watched "Don´t eat the snow in Hawaii", to figure out the phone number, I did the same thing as Maverick did: use the slow mo on the scene in which Magnum starts the Ferrari. Like Maverick I spotted the last digits 57777.

Yet unmentioned there is another scene in which the whole number 555-7777 can be spotted: It is in episode two, when Higgins uses that number to switch off the Ferraris alarm before he starts his ride to Rick to deliver the developed Photos to him.
... Then I'm history... Walking history... I'll be just another chapter in one of those dumb books Louise Peardon makes me read: "Prince Danny Lin, assassinated July." ...
