THURSDAY THEORY OF RELATEEVEETY - MOCHRIE MEN




Colin Mochrie appeared in two episodes of ‘Murdoch Mysteries’ – “8 Footsteps” & “Manual For Murder”.  In both he played Ralph Fellows who was the hotel detective at Windsor House.  He was jealous of Detective William Murdoch’s success which eventually drove him to desperate measures.

It appears Fellows had no offspring, at least not officially.  He may have had “relations” with a woman in Toronto which led to the birth of a child outside of marriage.



If so, that family lineage might have eventually led to Neil Jacott of Bishop, Canada.  Neil was also played by Colin Mochrie and was seen in the 2nd season opening episode of ‘Carter’ – “Harley Wears A Wig.”

Neil was known by the Bishop police as a chronic conspiracy fanatic, always reporting crimes that had not taken place.  So when he alleged that his wife was missing and perhaps kidnapped, only Harley Carter, now a private investigator, believed in him.
If Neil and Ralph are related, Ralph is probably either his grandfather or even great-grandfather.

And there’s another theory of “Relateeveety”, eh?
