Hi, Ed.

I've been trying to identify a background actor in Stargate SG-1 for years. I've asked several of the directors and producer if they knew her name, and no one knows.

Here's a photo:

I'm interested in the woman at the right.

She's been in the background of SG1 for all ten seasons. I've also seen her in other Vancouver productions (John Doe, etc.), but she never has a line, and is never identified in the credits.

Would you have any idea who she is, please?

It just bothers me (for some reason) to see someone for so many years and not know their name. She always does a perfect job in her "scenes," she's very believable.

Thank you, Ed.

I think her name is Carol or Karen. I've worked with her a couple of times on "Battlestar Galactica". I'll find out more for ya.

Man, I was way off. Her name is Melanie Angel. Here's her IMDb page: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0029478/

Ed,

Thank you so much! Wow! You are good. I've been asking for at least four years (possibly more).

Woo-hoo!

:)

Best wishes, Ed.
