From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fella Edmonds (born 25 October 1941), also known as Eddie Edmonds, is a British child actor of film and television.
Life
Edmonds was born on 25 October 1941 in Chiswick.[1][2]
His early promise as Georgie Crain, the principal figure in The Rainbow Jacket, failed to land him any further leading roles other than in a Children's Film Foundation film, The Stolen Airliner, the following year.[3][4] Although his small size (and confidence) allowed him to play a jockey, he grew up to be 6 feet 1 inch tall.[5]
He had no film roles as an adult.
