Clashing names

The IMDB cast list for "The Edgar Wallace Mystery Theatre" (1960) {Man Detained (#2.5)} includes Patrick Jordon playing "Brand".

The IMDB cast list for Man Detained (1961) includes Patrick Jordan (I) playing "Brand".

The cast list for "The Edgar Wallace Mystery Theatre" (1960) {Man Detained (#2.5)}, as seen on an Australian television broadcast, shows the actor as Patrick Jordan.

The names are similar and both Patrick Jordan (I) and Patrick Jordon are British actors. There are no matches in their filmographies. They could be the same person, who has been incorrectly credited many times (as one or the other).

There are no photographs of either actor to assist in identification.

So, should I assume that the 'Jordon' name is incorrect and change it to 'Jordan'? or vice versa? or leave as is?

Hi Graham -

After investigating, it's likely that the credit belongs to "Patrick Jordan (I)" here.  I have now modified the credit so it will display on this page, the change will be live on the site shortly.  Cheers!

Thanks.

I assumed that would be the most likely attribution, but thought the question was worth asking.
