Man fakes own death and hides in TV impersonating programmes for 15 years

The family of Barry Fisher had often wondered why the actors on the TV programmes often looked the same, and why there was only one person in each scene. ‘We often wondered why the actors on the TV programmes often looked the same, and why there was only one person in each scene,’ his family said in unison.
