I know he’s not a character, but that’s the best credit...

(Jurassic Park, if you were wondering)

Off topic perhaps but I have a friend in the industry.  He's usually credited as "Data Wrangler."

The bleak and terrifying “Threads” gave us this gem:  http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1856457/?ref_=ttfc_fc_cl_t53

Poor woman, it’s her only film credit as well.  I guess she didn’t want to get typecast.

The Silence of the Lambs had "Moth Wrangler"

Off topic perhaps but I have a friend in the industry.  He’s usually credited as “Data Wrangler.”

I did that (well I did DIT in the gallery) on the Job Interview (C4 thursdays), watching 16screens for 12h a day looking for any glitches, I never want to see a job interview again.

I was credited in the Danny Dyer ‘classic’ Vendetta as SO19 officer. Not particularly impressive or amusing.

My credit did appear lower than 2 other characters; ‘Angry Stripper’ and ‘Geezer’, neither of whom spent 7 freezing hours at night in a rubbish recycling place next to the Thames filming what ended up being a 2 second scene. Got free fish & chips though & Danny Dyer was quite funny. He had a young blonde runner who’s job appeared to be passing him a down jacket and a lot cigarette between every take.
