Roland Rat's Ratcrew?

I wonder who here remembers Roland Rat's BBC TV Series, back in 1986 and 1988.

I have been looking into the interesting matter of who actually were "The RatCrew" on Roland Rat's BBC Series; and which characters did which members of the RatCrew perform.

So far the list I've got reads:

David Claridge – as Roland Rat, Reggie Rat (Roland’s little brother), Freddy Rat (Roland’s Father)

Louise Gold – as Iris Rat (Roland’s Mother), Roxanne (a scouse rat who was one of Roland’s girlfriends)

Leslie Herbert- as Errol The Hamster

Ann Prior - ?

Maggie Danylewicz - ?

Darryl Worbey – as Kevin The Gerbil

There are at least four other frequently reocurring characters, namely:

Glenis The Guineapig,

Fergie The Ferret (male),

Colin The Flea

Eric The Eagle.

But I don't know which members of the RatCrew did which of these. Does anyone here know?

(The only thing I am sure of, is that contrary to the information in the IMDB, Louise Gold definitely did not do The Guineapig, there Glenis must surely have been either: Ann Prior or Maggie Danylewicz).

Can anyone help me over this?

Thanks

Emma
