Career: Determined to become a serious actor, Grammer spent two years at New York's Juilliard School. He then worked in theatre before making his TV debut in 1983 miniseries Kennedy. He had a stint in soap Another World, and in 1984 began playing Dr Frasier Crane in Cheers. After Cheers ended in 1993, he launched the hugely popular spin-off series Frasier. In addition to starring in 264 editions of the sitcom, he directed more than 30 episodes. Grammer has also starred in X-Men: The Last Stand, short-lived sitcoms Back to You and Hank, and the dramas Boss and Partners. He is also the voice of Sideshow Bob in The Simpsons.

Career: Richards moved to Los Angeles where she gained more modelling work, but she soon learnt that, at five feet six inches, she wasn't tall enough. She began attending acting classes and made her TV debut in an episode of Life Goes On in 1990. Her first film was 1991's Loaded Weapon 1, which was followed by numerous forgettable projects. Starship Troopers made her a star in 1997. Since then she's appeared in Wild Things, Drop Dead Gorgeous, The World Is Not Enough, Scary Movie 3, and Love Actually. She posed nude for a Playboy pictorial in 2004, and semi-nude - for charity - in another magazine shoot in 2006. Richards made two seasons of reality show Denise Richards: It's Complicated, starting in 2008. She failed to find her feet on the 2009 run of Dancing with the Stars, becoming the second contestant to be eliminated. She played the recurring role of Debra in American comedy drama Blue Mountain State, which ran during 2010 and into 2011.
