Can you help me?

He’s older, late sixties, early seventies. Tall, white, slim, glasses, white/gray hair. Very well spoken/posh. I’m not 100% about whether he’s a journalist/broadcaster or an actor. Nothing obvious on Google..... a bit vague I know but if Mumsnet can find someone’s ring in Archway I am sure it can help me identify this guy!

Can you think of anything he has been in?

Sounds like Nick Hewer.

FastAway · 02/01/2020 19:47

Kingston area.

None of the above but thank you. He looks a little little bit like John Curtice the politics guy

If I saw Antony Head in the local shop I would faint Saucery.

MairzyDoats · 02/01/2020 19:51

I reckon Jon snow too. I once saw Alan Rickman stride in front of me across Covent Garden in a long swirly coat and nearly swooned. That man just oozed charisma.

No to all these.... he may even be big on radio (although his face was very recognisable).
