Gloss - Jim Hickey cameo

Television (Excerpts) – 1988

By the time Gloss’s second season aired the sharemarket had crashed, but the parade of yuppies, shoulder-pads and champagne went on. This 19 July 1988 episode sees the Redfern family deal with a tragedy; it also features an acting cameo from future weatherman Jim Hickey. In these excerpts Hickey isn’t playing meteorological soothsayer to the nation, but a policeman responding to the mysterious death of Brad Redfern (Michael Keir-Morrissey). He soothes the Redferns, after tossing a coin with a fellow officer for a ride to Remuera in the deceased’s Jaguar.  

But Brad wouldn’t do that … not Brad!
– Caro (Donna Clark) on the insinuation that Brad (Michael Keir-Morrissey) committed suicide.
