Why is Paul Kaye suddenly all over my TV again.

I've been watching catch up and the last 3 programmes have all starred Paul Kaye:
Mr Norrell and Jonathan Strange - wild eyed prophet.
The Interceptor - wild eyed killer.
Suntrap - wild eyed, Spanish Freddy Mercury tribute act.

He seems to be what programme makers are looking for.

Apparently he is also going to be in Dr Who soon.

I have a disturbing tendency to lust over him inappropriately Blush

Dr Who you say.................

Might join DS and DH on the sofa when the new series starts Smile

BishopBrennansArse · 27/06/2015 20:51

He was great as Vince in Mongrels.

Love him and think he is lush in Norrell & Strange Blush

Is he single?

"The Dennis Pennis treatment did work on a few people though"

I always remember his run-ins with Kevin Costner as Pennis. Smile

NormHonal · 28/06/2015 18:19

No complaints from me, I love him.

Maybe he has school fees to pay or summat.

lollilou · 28/06/2015 18:27

I used to love him then he did a horrible bingo/gambling advert and I went off him.

"I used to love him then he did a horrible bingo/gambling advert and I went off him."

Was it as bad as advert? Surely not.

'The Dennis Pennis treatment did work on a few people though'

I always remember the Demi Moore one...'if it wasn't gratuitous and if it was tastefully done, would you consider keeping your clothes on in a movie?'

Demi Moore just walked away...!

CelibacyCakeAndFuckThePO · 28/06/2015 23:29

I love him.

He is very attractive irl.

He has a touch of the 'Rik Mayal' sexiness . A bit dangerous, not classically attractive but very sexy.

Does anyone remember Perfect World? It was so funny but never been repeated Sad

BitterChocolate · 28/06/2015 23:53

I was distraught when his character died in 2000 Acres. I didn't even continue watching it after he'd gone.

I suspect he's tricky to cast, but he's always very watchable in the right role.

GhoulWithADragonTattoo · 29/06/2015 11:43

Funnily enough before I saw this I just send DH a message asking 'is that gobshite [Paul Kaye] never off the telly?'. I actually love him but he does seem everywhere at the moment!!

limitedperiodonly · 29/06/2015 15:48

I liked Perfect World too Deidre

limitedperiodonly · 29/06/2015 15:50

It's on YouTube

OnlyLovers · 29/06/2015 16:50

Who is he in Humans? I've only watched the first one so maybe he hasn't turned up yet?

lollilou · 29/06/2015 16:57

He was in the second one playing a crazy guy who deals in illegal robot modifications. Oh and they showed his photo in lasts nights too.

OnlyLovers · 30/06/2015 10:04

I'll look out for him. I'm still behind.

I quite fancy him in Jonathan Strange. Blush

FraggleHair · 30/06/2015 10:43

He was in Ripper Street too.....playing a wild eyed cult leader.

I groan when I see him pop up in things, and it's not a groan of pleasure. His agent must have the monopoly on Wild Eyed Crazies casting slots.

OnlyLovers · 30/06/2015 10:58

I don't remember him in Ripper St. When it was on the Beeb, or the Amazon one? I haven't caught up with the Amazon ones yet.

If it was the Beeb one, I would have been too busy ogling Matthew Macfadyen and your man the 'surgeon'. Grin

I loved him in Lillyhammer. The Millwall Brick scene was brilliantly disturbing.

AlisonBlunderland · 01/07/2015 09:56

He's either got a new agent or a new wife

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 01/07/2015 10:03

Eurgh yes the TV advert ( I hoped those veneers were false)

Perfect World was brilliant, but might be a bit 80s/Yuppie for todays taste (it was 1990 according to Google)

youngestisapyscho · 01/07/2015 11:40

Wasn't he in Stella too?

OnlyLovers · 01/07/2015 11:51

What's Stella?
