Let's make this birthday one to remember.

78 years old (Born on June 05, 1946)

Happy Birthday, John Bach! Whether you're expertly tracking Orcs as Madril in Middle-earth or solving mysteries with sharp wit and charm as Detective Duggan, you've always kept us captivated. May your birthday be filled with fewer battles than Gondor faced—and definitely less paperwork than a detective endures!

From the rugged terrains of Tolkien's epic to unraveling crimes on New Zealand screens, you’ve given audiences unforgettable moments that stand timelessly entertaining. Here's hoping this year brings adventures worthy of both Ranger bravery and investigative brilliance—minus any pesky Uruk-hai interruptions.

Cheers to another fantastic chapter ahead; may it rival even Aragorn’s coronation celebrations!
