If I recall right I think Aleksander started around in June 1982 around the same time as Phil McGregor started as Freddy/Rick.

Thank you!

You answered a question I was going to ask. I am watching the 1979 Christmas episode and I was who the hell is Freddie?..lol

 

Also who is the old man with Bert and who is Peter? I don't recall them although it been years since I've seen this episode.

Yes. The older man is Dr. Steve Jackson, who was the late Leslie Bauer's father. Thus, he is Rick Bauer's grandfather. Peter Chapman was a doctor and involved with Holly. He was played by the late Curt Dawson who also played DA Zack Colton on Another World.

And I could watch Maureen Garrett play anything. No histrionics or annoying tics, always a believable and realistic performance.

 

It's sometimes hard to reconcile this Holly with the one who returned a decade later, but the heart of the character was always there and Maureen never phoned it in.
