Time was when a fear of typecasting was the only thing to plague veteran Sci-Fi actors. But a new problem has surfaced amongst the alumnus from various 70's and 80's cheap BBC futuristic series.
Nothing, according to the props and set design departments of the 70's, said "futuristic" more than fancy coloured green beverages. One poor soul, let's call him 'V' to protect his identity (we've also blurred his features to render him unrecognisable), didn't realise until it was too late what sort of cumulative damage 4 years of drinking this green dye would have.
Soon after completing shooting on the series his pee turned the same luminous shade of green and hasn't yet returned to normal. Concern has led him to create a support group to help those similarly afflicted after drinking their way through take after take consuming vast amounts of garish coloured liquid, be it Bo Juice, Synthahol or Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters.
