[Editor's note: The identities of the above have not been checked (though most are probably correct). For instance, there have been other actors called George Baker, and Winifred Melville is unlikely to be the same person as Winnie Melville, who died on 19 September 1937. Any information on any of the above films, and confirmation of identities, as well as any others to add to the list, would be of interest.]
