>>I was watching the episode last night where Andy and Barney catch on >>the brothers robbing Wally's. In one scene Andy and Barney both talk >>to a gentleman in front of the courthouse sitting on a bench. He has >>a hat on and is carving a piece of wood. He shows it to Andy and Andy
>>replies, "good...tell me what it is and I'll give you fifty cents". >>Barney then acknowledges the gentleman and says something to effect of >>, "nice work". The man appears to be Howard McNear or Floyd himself. Once this episode taped close to his stroke? Perhaps Howard could not speak at that time. Does anyone know?<<<< I just saw that scene within the last week, (and I don't think it was in the Filling Station Robbery Episode --trained noticer help?) and I'm pretty sure it's not Howard McNear. Also I don't believe they ever used an established main character as a background actor. ------------------------------ >>>>I was wondering if anyone knows how many people actually played 2 or more roles on the show. I am at a loss for this gentleman's name but he also played Gomer Pyle USMC. He played the man who sold the vegetables on the side of the road and Barney ran off. And played on a few other episodes of TAGS.Are there many other people that played duel roles? Thanks, Frank Johnson <<<<<<< Frank, my fellow Hoosier, I want you to go to this website. its actually on the www.Mayberry.com site on the right hand side where it says "Cast member/Episode Database" http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/anewsome/private/searchcastfile. htm Type names like Allan Melvin, Bob McQuain and Mary Lansing. You type the first name in one blank and the last name in another blank, hit the search button and see what you find out? There are many many dual roles (triple etc.) but if I gave you all of them you would miss the fun of discovery. You too can be a Mayberry detective and discover that Barney's Voice teacher could also dance!!
