So I have a picture in my head of an a celebrity possibly an Eastenders actor- almost certain they're English at least. 30s/early 40s max, reddish brown hair. Looks a bit like Joe Swash but longer hair and a bit moody. I've googled British actors with red hair and Eastenders actors with red hair but I just keep getting Max Branning and Damien Lewis. Who is this person I can't put my finger on it and it's driving me nuts!

I can see him in my minds eye so clearly. Tousled reddish hair. Slim, pale face.Arched eyebrows. Handsome but haughty looking. It's driving me mad!

That screams Damian Lewis to me. I know you say it isn't, but have you double-checked?

@Noseycow20

Definitely think it’s Adam James. He’s the kind of actor you can’t remember what he’s been in but can see his face 😂
I'm watching Vigil at the moment and it was driving me mad trying to place him. I'd seen him in Ashes to Ashes, if anyone is interested Grin

Damian Lewis? When he had longer hair.. of course!

Frazzledd · 22/09/2021 13:06

Rupert Grint?

ShipshapeShore · 22/09/2021 13:21

I love this. So many random names. Could it possibly be a character from Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit with the long tousled hair?! I reckon OP will come back with someone nothing like the description - "I've got it, it was Jonathan Ross all along!" 😂

Cillian Murphy, I think he's more blonde though.
