More Casting News for “Urban and the Shed Crew”: Neil Morrissey!

Will Chop be a scruffier, more dissipated version of this RA?
Thanks to “Mostly Richard Armitage” on Tumblr for the image.

The Internet Movie Database (IMDB.com) page has been updated. RA has been added as Chop, and two more cast members have been named:

First we have the fabulous Neil Morrissey as Doc (his bio and credits are here), and Kathryn Drysdale as Madge (her bio and credits are here).

Interesting, isn’t it, that neither Anna Friel nor Nadine Mulkerrin – the other two cast members we’ve seen announced – are listed yet?
