If you watch much British television. This is pretty common in most of it. I'm convinced there are only about 40 actors total, in all of the UK.
Look at Doctor Who. The Doctor married the real life daughter of the Doctor who was playing the daughter of the Doctor, whom she married. Later, the Doctor's father in law played a lawyer in Law and Order: UK with the Doctor's companion, who was training to be a doctor, but was a lawyer now.
