Summary[edit]

This is an image of television character, Andy Thorpe who was played by actor John Batchelor. This image is in the form of a television screenshot from the Australian television series Sea Patrol (2007-present). This series was produced by McElroy All Media for the Nine Network, Australia. Sea Patrol DVDs are distributed by Roadshow Entertainment. Only a small portion of the work has been used (1 low-resolution image) and the image has been cropped as to only include the person. It is the purpose of this image to be used in the article about the same person, Andy Thorpe. In this article it is used in the character's info box to illustrate what the character looked like. This is quite significant to the article and relates directly to what (whom) the article is about and is the main subject. I have used a non-free television screenshot because there is no free alternative. This is because, quite obviously, the person pictured is a television character and could be found in no other place but a screenshot.
