Odd, I popped several phrases of into google and saw nothing. But, there it is... Off it goes, sorry folks. Can't include copyrighted texts without appropriate licensing -- and IMDB text is copyright IMDB aka Amazon. Please write original bios! --Brion 06:26 Mar 30, 2003 (UTC)

I've replaced it with a stub written off the cuff. Further information (especially as regards his non-Farscape work and the racing stuff) would be good to have. --Brion 06:42 Mar 30, 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Date of birth?

I know that IMDB says the same thing, but 1962!? Surely he is nowhere near 43? pomegranate 21:44, Jan 23, 2005 (UTC)

Amazing isn't it? I just realized that after reading what you wrote. It's definitely kinda hard to believe. StargateX1 05:45, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Poor Acting Skills

Should it be mentioned that he has poor acting skills?

That is completely your opinion, it would be difficult to source that. I respectfully disagree, I think he is a very good actor. Anyhow skills are for individuals to judge. SynergyStar (talk) 13:04, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

If there is a concensus among critics, it could be mentioned in a 'reception' section, properly sourced. 138.23.72.230 (talk) 15:06, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Australia - No Clark Bars

An edit I was tempted to make but it really isn't Ben's history but hearsay. So what the hey I'm putting it here! lol

The Article says: "...Browder met his wife, fellow actor Francesca Buller, while studying at the Central School of Speech and Drama in London..."

As Fran tells it Ben and she met when they were working through a scene on stage with a famous actor. Ben made a suggestion to him how to play a certain scene. Fran remembers thinking to herself, “Who is this guy who fearlessly walks right up and says what he thinks?” (Anecdote Paraphrased from 2002 Burbank Con) :)

Ben and Fran met in drama school. The anecdote above happened in Merchant of Venice which is the first job Ben had out of drama school and Fran got it for him as she was already in the production. The "famous actor" was Dustin Hoffman. - markram

[edit] Personal stats?

How tall is he? How much does he weigh? --72.202.150.92 04:36, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
