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!

@Nuffaluff
Maybe it really was Greg Wise.
I'd faint if I saw Greg wise on the tube

Steven Mackintosh? He's not Northern though.

Well, today I learned that Robson Green's middle name is Golightly...
SchrodingersMouse · 28/10/2021 20:01
The train was going to Margate from London. He was drinking a tumbler or white wine
TaraR2020 · 28/10/2021 20:02
Not Laurence Fox? 
SchrodingersMouse · 28/10/2021 20:03
Aaargh! He’s definitely the same category as most of these people. But not one of them!
I have an image in my mind of him standing in front of a northern English rural backdrop. I’ve searched through the emmerdale cast abs he’s not one of them

@AppleButter if you mean Alan Rickman that would be extraordinary because he’s sadly dead.
SchrodingersMouse · 28/10/2021 20:04
@TaraR2020
DEFINITELY NOT
I actually live near Laurence fox and so see him regularly. I derive zero pleasure from that
WithMyEncyclopedia · 28/10/2021 20:04
Daniel Craig? I can see him drinking a tumbler of wine on the Tube.
TheMooch · 28/10/2021 20:05
Richard Armitage
TaraR2020 · 28/10/2021 20:05
@SchrodingersMouse thank god for that!
(Not you living near him, for that you have my unending sympathies!)
amillionrosepetals · 28/10/2021 20:05
James Wilby?
tinselandlights · 28/10/2021 20:05
@SchrodingersMouse is it Max Beesley?
Hugo Speer?
There's a very handsome British guy who was in a Richard Curtis style comedy whose name I can't remember but it's bugging me too now!
TaraR2020 · 28/10/2021 20:05
I'd faint if I saw Richard Armitage too
DappledThings · 28/10/2021 20:06
Simon Shepherd?
DaisyNGO · 28/10/2021 20:06
Long shot

I would LOVE to see him IRL.
