My friend Richard Malado posted online in 2015 that this new series was about to start on Sky Living and he played Venus' Father in it. So many people on social media were excited as he had his first part in a tv series, although small. So I and many others who knew him began watching it, waiting for the episode that Venus meets up with her Father in. About half way through the show, the episode was coming up when Venus' Father was due to appear as the previous episode ended with Venus saying that she was about to meet him so both Richard and all of us who know him were very excited in anticipation of seeing him on tv! But sadly Richard received notification just DAYS before the episode aired, from the writer saying that unfortunately Sky wanted a "named actor" for the role of Venus' Father and so they didn't include the filmed footage of him as the Father in the series but replaced it with the apprearance of another actor (Vas Blackwood). I understand that Vas Backwood is a good actor and well known but this would've been a nice break for Richard, for him to be seen in a tv drama for the first time. That was such a shame for Richard.
