  • Grant's Best Role

    I didn't think it necessary to add his role as narrator of Border Security as he never appears in the show, but you are more than welcolme to raise it in the forums if you believe it to be the best. I wanted to include his role as Nigel "Mac" MacPherson in All Saints , but I was limited toMore only five choices. Grant also starred in Medivac , Pacific Drive and Something In The Air , as well as a recurring role in Stingers . Personally, I think he was at his absolute best when he was hosting The Mole . Never have I been so enthralled in a reality TV show host than I was with him. He was deceptive, cunning and manipulative, like the contestants, and you knew just by looking at him that he knew everything that was going on, but would never reveal it. He brought life and soul to the show, and it was never the same when he was replaced for the last season due to Grant having other work committments.

  • Grant Bowler On Lost

    Grant Bowler, best known for his appearances in the Australian shows The Mole , Always Greener, All Saints and narrating Border Security , as well as starring in the New Zealand show Outrageous Fortune , has now been cast as a recurring character in the hugely popular American show Lost . More Grant is playing the part of Captain Gault, the mysterious captain of the ship anchored off the coast of the island. His first appearance was in tonight's episode "Ji Yeon" (episode 7 of the fourth season). Having seen that episode, I must say he was terrifyingly good. What did everyone else think of his performance? Is he well suited to the role? I personally think that he fits right in in the show, and it will be great for him as an actor to have Lost appear in his credits.
