Actors who have appeared in both "Wuthering Heights" and "A Christmas Carol" adaptations
@faintingheroine
*Leo G. Carroll: Marley’s Ghost in the 1938 Reginald Owen Christmas Carol/Joseph in the 1939 Wuthering Heights
*Patrick Macnee: Edgar in the 1948 British TV Wuthering Heights/Young Marley in the 1951 Alastair Sim Scrooge
*Caroline Langrishe: Isabella in the 1978 BBC Wuthering Heights miniseries/Fred’s wife Janet in the 1984 George C. Scott Christmas Carol
*Cathryn Harrison: Catherine Linton in the 1978 BBC Wuthering Heights miniseries/Fred’s sister-in-law Kate ('the plump sister") in the 1984 George C. Scott Christmas Carol
*Charlotte Riley: Catherine Earnshaw in the 2009 Wuthering Heights miniseries/The Ghost of Christmas Present and Scrooge’s sister Lottie in the 2019 Guy Pearce Christmas Carol miniseries
*Andrew Lincoln: Edgar in the 2009 Wuthering Heights miniseries/Scrooge in the 2020 Old Vic Christmas Carol production shown in cinemas
*Dave Willetts: Heathcliff on the concept album of Bernard J. Taylor’s 1992 Wuthering Heights musical/one of the charity gentlemen in the 2004 Christmas Carol TV musical
Since both of these books are classic works of British literature, I'm honestly surprised that between all the adaptations, there haven't been more overlapping actors.

To mark the recent announcement of a release date for the long awaited Blu-Ray of Duet for One from Kino Lorber -- June 27, folks -- here is a rare behind-the-scenes shot of the cast and crew from the final day of principal shooting at Stonor Park in March 1986.
Principals in the front row are from L to R: Margaret Courtney, Rupert Everett, Alan Bates, Julie Andrews, Cathryn Harrison, Andrei Konchalovsky, Macha Méril, Max von Sydow, and Nicola Perring. Absent, presumably because they were not involved in filming that day: Sigfrit Steiner, Liam Neeson, and Siobhan Redmond.
Here’s hoping the new release of Duet for One brings this criminally neglected gem of a film the belated love it deserves.
