Edward Mulhare, the North Mon boy and link between Knight Rider s KITT and Pope John Paul II s Irish popemobile
Analysis: besides a stellar acting career on stage and screen, Edward Mulhare is also the link between KITT and the popemobile
My grandfather told a good yarn. One of his best was that he went to school in the North Mon with an actor who used to be in a 1960s American television series, The Ghost and Mrs Muir. But it turns out this was not the only hit television show this Cork actor starred in. Edward Mulhare featured in every episode of the hit 1980s show, Knight Rider, as Devon Mills, the man in charge of F.L.A.G, the secret organisation that Michael Knight and KITT worked for.
The third season of
Knight Rider brings back Patricia McPherson as Bonnie, who was replaced in season 2 by Rebecca Holden, who played scientist and KITT mechanic/handler April. We’re never given an explanation as to why April left the Foundation for Law and Government, but we do find out, in the two-part season opener
Knight of the Drones, that Bonnie originally left FLAG to do research and continue her education (she was also apparently tired of the endless crime fighting that FLAG engaged in). I definitely prefer Bonnie over April (Rebecca Holden is a fine actress and all, but she never really fit in with Hasselhoff’s Michael Knight and Edward Mulhare’s Devon Miles and her presence changed the tone of the show in the second season), but I would have liked some sort of explanation as to why April was suddenly gone. I mean, who took care of KITT between April leaving and Bonnie returning? Was it a series of faceless/nameless FLAG technicians?
Heroes alum Leonard Roberts says racism ruined his role and accuses hated co-star Ali Larter of having him written off NBC series over tension
The 48-year-old actor penned an essay for Variety in which he recounted how he was hired then fired from the program
He said that his experience working on the show showed him how quickly racist systems can destroy opportunities for black actors
Leonard then went on to describe his contentious relationship with co-star Larter who played his on-screen wife
He wrote: The script suggested D.L. and Niki (Larter) had a volatile relationship - and it wasn t long before art was imitating life, with me on the receiving end of pushback from my co-star regarding the playing of a particularly tense scene
