Hi,re the Bruce Springstein question I'd say this is it.............
Upon arriving late, Christopher says that the "highway was jammed with broken heroes on a last-chance power drive". These are lyrics to Bruce Springsteen's song "Born to Run". Steve Van Zandt is a member of Springsteen's E Street Band. more

Hiya
Question 5, the answer is not Lorne Green as he died in 1987, it is Richard Hatch that has appeared in both the original and the newer version.

Remake he plays Tom Zarek
