He's Canadian, eh, and he's been in just aboot every tv show filmed in this
country... as far back as the old 80's series "Alfred Hitchcock Presents".
He recently finished filming a made-for-TV-movie in my city of Calgary.
It's called "The Sheldon Kennedy Story", and he plays former Junior hockey coach
Graham James - who is now serving a prison sentence for molesting former NHL'er
Kennedy.
Most hockey fans will know the story. I can't think of a more despicable
character for Wisden to play. He's quite chilling in his performance according to
people I know who worked on the set.
The movie is supposed to air in the fall. Check it out at the IMDB:

And don't forget he's a regular cast member on "DaVinci's Inquest".

Yes of course! I've only seen one episode but it seemed to be pretty good.
I hear it will be back for a second season too.
I would have mentioned "DaVinci's" in the last post but I figured Zelda would see
the huge list of shows at the IMDB.
Speaking of which, I made a mistake earlier. Robert Wisden is NOT Canadian born,
though he probably was raised here.
IMDB shows his birthplace as Brighton, East Sussex, England, UK.
Here's hoping he is a guest on "Open Mike with Mike Bullard" this fall. I'm sure
his Graham James role will generate lots of publicity!

There's actually a website devoted to the Pusher character and Robert
Wisden, called the Temple of Modell...

If you get the FX channel he was in 2 Millennium episodes: Monster
(which also starred the little girl who played Emily in the title role
and Chris Owens/Spender) and TEOTWAWKI. Both were pretty good eps.

Unless I'm horribly mistaken, he can also been seen in Stargate SG-1.

I totally missed that. So he played 'Macro'.

I recently saw him on an episode of Poltergeist: The Legacy. It also
had the kid that was in Conduit and The Calusari. But then, a lot of
the Canadian/Vancouverite actors appear in the same shows:
Poltergeist, Outer Limits, XF, Highlander, etc etc. Any time you see
anything filmed in Vancouver it's a good bet you're going to see some
XF alums. There's a great website called "Recycled Canadian Actors"
that details this phenomenon:
This is what they list for Robert Wisden:
Da Vinci's Inquest (James Flynn)
Dead Man's Gun ("Ties that Bind")
Highlander (Culbraith in "The Messanger")
Highlander (Werner in "The Return of Amanda")
Kung Fu: The Legend Continues(Valdosta Sam in "Pai Gow")
Millennium (Gordon Roberts in "Monster")
Millennium (Chris Carmody in "Teotwawki")
The Outer Limits (Sam Winter in "The Message")
Poltergeist: The Legacy (Donlon in "Someone to Watch Over Me")
Poltergeist: The Legacy (father in "Still Waters")
Stargate SG-1(Captain Samuels in "Children of the Gods", "The
Serpent's Lair" and "Politics")
Welcome to Paradox (John in "Research Alpha")
The X-Files (Robert Modell in "Pusher" and "Kitsunegari")
: I totally missed that. So he played 'Macro'.
I don't know any characters names but he was one of the lead bad guys.
