Post by: toetyper on September 15, 2011, 04:51:01 PM
per wikipedia--

The Inquizitor never showed his face during the show's three-year run, and due to stipulations in his contract, his identity is still unknown


is this right/

If you listen very carefully (like I did), you'll see and hear who the Inquizitor really was -- Edgar the Talking Jukebox.

No. I know who the Inquizitor is, I simply have chosen not to update the Wikipedia article with this knowledge. Or, indeed, tell anybody.

If waterboarding had been part of the game, I would have said it was Dick Cheney. But it wasn't. So?

Source on this is Fred Wostbrock. "The Inquizitor" was apparently just some voiceover guy whose contract stipulated that his identity couldn't be known. His reputation and stature in the industry are of such paramount importance that 12 years later, Fred couldn't remember his name.

LOL!  Yes, he was a non-superstar VO guy whose name I have also forgotten, Sande Stewart told me that the guy was one of the more unkempt guys he'd worked with. So much so that he'd likely shoot him in shadow even if that weren't the plan.

If you see him again, would you ask the $50 follow-up, why? What an odd rider; most people are content with M&Ms and bottled water in the dressing room.

I would imagine this was the production company's term, not the VO actor.
