Three foot eleven star of The Wizard wary on American series
English actor David Rappaport who is 3 feet 11 inches tall was hesitant when offered the lead in The Wizard created for him by 20th Century Fox Television. He worried about being trapped in a US series, but input from writers and his drum-playing hobby helped him join as Simon McKay. The show, back on CBS Tuesdays, mixes gadgets, heart and non-violent problem solving.

Inmate praises TV portrayal of rich grandfather murder
In Salt Lake City Marc Schreuder, serving a life sentence for killing his wealthy grandfather Franklin Bradshaw, called a CBS miniseries eerie but fairly accurate after watching it in Utah State Prison. His mother Frances, also convicted, did not view the show. Bradshaw, 76, was shot in a Salt Lake City auto parts warehouse in July 1978. Schreuder was 25 when sentenced in 1982. Frances Schreuder, then 48, aided her son to kill to influence the will.
