AN ACTOR and singer from Hilperton will appear in an episode of a children's TV series due to be aired tonight.
Stan Jakielski, known as Stan the Man, plays a camp, leopard-skin clad hairdresser in The Giblet Boys, which focuses on the adventures of three brothers.
Davina Belling and Clive Parsons, the producers behind Scum and Gregory's Girl, filmed scenes for the show in Bristol.
Episode two of the show, featuring Stan and his powder pink salon will be aired at 4.30pm on ITV.
Mr Jakielski, who used to work at the Wiltshire Times, is due to play a starring role in the twisted German comedy Mr Kolpert, at the Alma Theatre, Bristol, from February 14 to 19.
He will sing songs throughout the show.
