Who would play your Rupert Campbell-Black?

[Iamblossom]

He has to be blond surely?

Struggling to think of an actor I would cast rather than the dark haired chap that is playing him in Rivals, but maybe that's the point - he is sooo perfect his likeness doesn't exist

James Norton.

He's amazing. Really sensitive and tender performance. Him and Katherine Parkinson are dynamite together.

To be honest AH might not be people's physical ideal for RCB but he really isn't doing a bad job of the energy of him.
And Declan is gorgeous!

I think AH has that thing going on where you think ew when you first look at him, then he grows on you and you can't think about anyone else. Very Jilly!

He reminds me of that appalling Dr Chris Jensen from ‘Embarrassing Bodies’.

Danny dyer is a real surprise. He's fab, and his chemistry with KP is just lovely.

Yes they are the real stars.

The whole series is such a tonic.

Having looked up all the suggested names I didn't know, I agree James Norton looks very Rupert.

Rupert Friend who played Mr Wickham in 2005 Pride & Prejudice would've also looked super as RCB.

Agree completely!

I’m gutted. I’ve read that book 16 times and barely any of the characters look like they’re described. Freddie jones being one of them!

Henry Cavill for all romantic lead roles 😂

Yes! Been rewatching the Tudors and he is so hot.

Ha! Me too. Now that would have been some left-field casting. 😁

I must say he was very sexy in the witcher, and he can ride.

Struggling with link

I always forget how handsome Rik actually was! I'm so used to thinking of him as Richie!

sigh

Tom Hiddleston maybe? I am struggling with this one.

Definitely the Hugh Grant of Bridget Jones/Love Actually days.

Yes that's who I imagined back in the day as well

Ohh yes good call

Chris Hemsworth is a bit too rugged but I could see it.. having read the suggestions I've updated my opinion, James Norton would be the best Nicolaj (forgotten his surname) from Game of Thrones is also a good shout
