I just looked up as much as I had patience for on the character. I
don't know the site now (short term memory loss, lol) but I think it
was one of the soap mags that give cast lists etc. It said the
character's real name is *Cole Radcliffe*. No mention of *Mitchell*.
<sigh> I also found an interview from 2005 (again, I think it was
2005) in which Mr. Gibbons said he *wished they would call him more
often*. He seems to be that enigma wrapped . . . . .
