A new CBC dramatic ser.cs which began this season is Wc- jeck" , a short ten-week serleS that could turn out to be verN good and the equis"alelt o: e'ia U.S. network's 'Doctor" 0:00. Dr, Steve Wojeek is a big eit,. coroner, and the series takes us with him on many of his ad- ventures, pleasant and other- wise. Actor in the title role is John Vernon, a performer who has made the rounds in every kind of role, but is no more able to fit into any role than that of the coroner. Woject, in the eyes of writer Phillip "Hometown Service ... anywhere"... no matter how far from home you may be! A country-wide network of more than 200 claim offices services the car insurance we write.

Ic is Jefizattel.,, a fiCtional Charaotez, although his ad- vent-arcs and the sit:;ations dis, playe,,1 is his we are real. Writer Ilersoli, a native of Toronto, is a creator who will stop at nothing to lirite a story that 'lives'. He has talked to all kinds of people while writ- ing the series. His first idea for a series came after he visited a modern crime laboratory. He wrote a script but thought it 'too technical' to make interest,. ing drama. About that time the activities of a Toronto cor- oner were reaching the news- papers and Hersch was struck with a new idea -- that ofwrit- ing a series based on the work of a coroner . Following a sin- gle production, "Tell Them the Streets are Dancing", seen last winter, Hersch has been holed up with his typewriter, turning out scripts faster than Jack Benny can count money! Mr. Hersch has been writing since he was fifteen, but only started selling two years ago, (Guess there's hope for me yet!) His first script seen on the CBC was a 'Show of the Week' pro- duction. lie has worked at many different things at one time or another, has attended a film school in France, and directed such U.S. series as "Cannonball", "The Last of the Mohicans", and "Tugboat An- nie". His main interest lies in the field of the movies, but he claims he doesn't wish to leave Toronto permanently, though he would like to work in Lon- don and Hollywood. This year he has also written a film script for Expo 'WI, which illus• trates the theme of the Mont- real World's Fair. He has also worked on a film scenario for production in England. Hersch is married to the for- mer Nancy Waterhouse, a reg- istered nurse, who helps with the Wojeck series, gathering re- search and acting as script con- sultant. 0-0-0 In addition to John Vernon, the series also stars Ted Follows as Arnie Bateman; Carl Banas as Detective Sergeant ByronJames; and Patricia Collins as Marty Wojeck, Steve's wife. Jamie Weyman and Tanis Montgom- ery appear occasionally as Stevey and Judy, the Wojeck children. Top directors work- ing on the series include George McGowan, Ron Kelly, Paul Al- mond and Daryl Duke. The series is filmed entirely on location in Toronto, using No. 5 police station as head- quarters, and the city's streets, hospitals, hotels, offices and homes as location shootings. It is seen each Tuesday evening at 9 p.m.; watch it and see what you think of it.
