Help me place this actor??

[SchrodingersMouse]

I saw him on a train. Can’t for the life of me remember who he is.

He’s a British tv actor, probably in his 50s or early 60s. Grey hair, used to be blonde. Piercing blue eyes. Often plays a hero/ love interest type role.

a bit like Greg wise but shorter!

I feel sure he was in a Sunday night drama or a soap or something but I can’t find him online! It’s driving me mad!

@Handsoffstrikesagain

Ooo good shout mumofspuds!

Him in a toga (as Op said) would be a v nice image!

Rober Llewellyn

Thing is, the OP says he's now grey-haired, used to be blond, but looks like Greg Wise. But he was never blond, was he?

Is it Mark Rylance?

@FrankiesKnuckle

Ben Daniels? He was in cutting it.

I was in love with him in Cutting It!

Trevor Eve?

Hugh Bonneville?

Thing is, the OP says he's now grey-haired, used to be blond, but looks like Greg Wise. But he was never blond, was he?
Maybe she actually meant Greg Kinnear? In which case, scratch all the suggestions and let’s start again.

Rupert Graves

OP also said a rounder faced Mark Bonnar

Richard E Grant?!

Or Ernie Wise?

As long as she doesn't mean Gregg Wallace!

@SchrodingersMouse can you think roughly how long ago you last saw him on TV?

Jamie Banner...?
Or Steven Mackintosh maybe

Simon Pegg?!

Charles Dance

There needs to be a rule that people post a picture with the name, I can't be arsed googling all these actors!

Surely not.... Jude Law? Fits the description except the pastoral TV thing.
