Heikki Hela

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heikki Hela (born 1964) is a Finnish entertainer, actor and musician, best remembered for his role in the early 1990s hit show Kummeli and his hit song Uneton Yö, featured on his debut album, Kaikista Kaikkein. Since then, he has recorded three more albums (Kaksi Maailmaa, Lauantain Toivotut Levyt and se tulee läpi), along with playing numerous roles in Kummeli's spinoff films and other titles such as the comedy film Kahlekuningas (Handcuff King).

Considering that Hela originally worked behind the camera before becoming a full-time cast member, it is notable that of the original line-up of Timo Kahilainen, Heikki Silvennoinen, and Olli Keskinen, he was the only one with any prior acting experience.
