Melvyn Hayes (born 11 January 1935) played Wilkin in the webcast version of Shada, as well as its audio release, and the Scorchies in AUDIO: The Scorchies.

Wilkin was played in the original television version of Shada by Gerald Campion. When recasting the late Campion's role for the audio/webcast version director Nicholas Pegg remembered that Hayes had appeared alongside Campion in the Billy Bunter television series, upon which casting Hayes as Wilkin became "irresistible."[1]

Hayes is the former husband of Wendy Padbury and the father of Charlie Hayes.
