I really like Sally Bretton from Not Going Out. I think she does a convincing job in the series with children and her disdain for her partner is quite realistic I think.

Simon Peg. Love him brilliant actor and he's on my would be allowed list.

Goldenbear She's not acting. I spent 20 mins trapped at a bus stop with her and her RL partner once and she was HORRIBLE to him!

Yes to Reece Shearsmith and Bryan Cranston. Also memorised by Pamela Rabe from Wentworth, she is amazing!

Barbara Streisand
Al Pacino

Stephen Mangan

BaggypantsCrimplesnitch · 13/08/2017 21:41

Andy Serkis. I would (and have) cheerfully watch him in anything - I even watched the scenes with Gollum in the LOTR trilogy, and that's saying something.

GinIsIn · 13/08/2017 21:42

Romola Garai
Ben Whishaw
Anna Kendrick

justdontevenfuckingstart · 13/08/2017 21:43

Tom Hardy, and Alan Rickman, to be honest more hear than watch. He had an amazing voice.

PandorasXbox · 13/08/2017 21:44

Yes how could I forget Alan R.

Desperad0 · 13/08/2017 21:44

Clea duvall 😍😍

Desperad0 · 13/08/2017 21:45

And alan rickman, yes- good call!

EEandEmakes3 · 13/08/2017 21:47

Morgan Freeman
Hugh Jackman
Patrick Stewart
Emily Blunt

GinIsIn · 13/08/2017 21:47

Yes - LOVE Emily Blunt!

NigellasGuest · 13/08/2017 21:47

Helen McCrory - I don't know why! And I love Keely Hawes too

GoEasyPudding · 13/08/2017 21:48

Kenneth Branagh these days is my no 1. Was rather overcome when I discovered Dunkirk featured both him and Tom Hardy.

Cuntysnark · 13/08/2017 21:48

Dull as fuck but I may have a little sworn at Alan Rickman. And I'd give Leonard Cohen a good seeing to if the fucker was still breathing

ollieplimsoles · 13/08/2017 21:49

Yy to Alan Rickman, he was gorgeous in sense and sensibility.
Kate Mulgrew needs to be firmly up there too

Cate blanchett. She is a brilliant actress, and anything she is in, you know is going to be pure class.

Leo di caprio. Ditto the cate blanchett reason. You know you're in safe hands with a leo film.

Once upon a time, I would have said de niro. But he has well and truly lost it.

Nettletheelf · 13/08/2017 21:52

I bloody LOVE Janet McTeer. Also James Bolam and Lee Ingleby. None of them are going to appear in any old sh*t, are they?

n0ne · 13/08/2017 21:52

Pete Postlethwaite!

justdontevenfuckingstart · 13/08/2017 21:53

Cunty I didn't think much of Dunkirk but Kenneth was brilliant and has got damn fine! (I thought)

Middleoftheroad · 13/08/2017 21:54

Kevin Kline
Sharon Horgan
Julia Davis
Sir Ian Mckellan
Dame Judi

Melfish · 13/08/2017 21:54

Rufus Sewell or Ian McShane. Great and distinctive voices too.
