    I loved the A-Team. Face was my favourite character in it.
    Is it true that his agent came up with his name when they had lunch and ordered Eggs Benedict? I am sure I read this in a Look In magazine in the 80s and it has stuck in my mind.
    It’s great to see him come to Wolverhampton.

    Face was my absolute hero as a kid. Thanks, Dirk!

    What do you think happened to the A-Team (the REAL ones, not the movie version) after that final episode? What do you think they’d all now be doing in 2010?

    What does Dirk think about the new film? It’s not right that he’s not playing Face. They should have left it alone imho.

    Dear Dirk,

    The characters you play always seem to be real ladies’ men! Is this a true reflection on you, and if so do you have any tips for the rest of us?

    Dirk, loved the A-Team just like many people did. My first question to you is “What were your first impressions of Wolverhampton?” Secondly, has you ever used the expression “Talk to the hand, cos the Face aint listening?”
