Christopher Cazenove

This was just too good to pass up. Christopher Cazenove played Ben Carrington in the sixth season of Dynasty. Frankly, I had no idea the show lasted that long. In fact, it carried on another three seasons even after Ben Carrington! Here's the skinny on Ben Carrington straight from Wikipedia -- formatting and all:

Alexis Colby finds Blake's vengeful brother Ben in Australia, and brings him back to cause trouble for her ex-husband. Blake blames Ben for their mother's death; Ben was supposed to be caring for her, but instead left her alone. Ben and Alexis manage to bring Blake to his knees before Blake turns the tables on them; Ben eventually reconciles with Blake, and with his estranged daughter Leslie. It is also revealed that Ben had an affair with Emily Fallmont, and that Clay Fallmont may be his son. This is never proven for sure, and Ben ultimately leaves town.

So, this is classic "life imitating art imitating life," stuff. I think I have already said my peace about Dynasty. For those that follow this kind of stuff, the Death Watch stock on people like Joan Collins is through the roof.

I know I have said this before, but it's guys like Chris that really make Celebituary what it is. I'm not sure what that something is, but no doubt Blake and Ben Carrington are putting together a deal to blow this blog up big time, what with all their international business goings-on.
