Shine

[Tony Pendrey]

I was watching Shine on TV last night. About a third of the way through there is a scene where the camera focuses on an obvious transvestite in a bar/club where the students are celebrating.



The next scene is Helfgott waking up in Trafalgar Square with the transvestite's feather boa wrapped around him. Either there was a scene cut or we are supposed to imply something.



But here is the mystery. The transvestite character looks very very much like Marc Warren, (Danny in "Hustle".)



He is uncredited on IMDB but there are comments to the efect that it is him.



Can anyone shed any light on this ?

Marc Warren is credited on IMDb as having played "Ray"

Yep - Missed that ! So that must be him as the cross-dresser. But it is really odd in the film. Does anyone know the bit I mean.
