Please help me name this actor. Driving me bonkers.

[NellyJames]

Ok. I think he’s Scottish. Over 60. Balding but hair a sandy/ginger/blond sort of colour. Slim, sharp features (I think)
Similar age but not either Bill Paterson or Denis Lawson. I picture him as weary and maybe as an older uniformed police officer. 😩😩😩 Any ideas?

Have we had Christian Rodska yet?

not Olivia Colman then?

or Neville Buswell

Tom Conti
Paul Copley
Ken Stott

Bill Dunbar
Adrian Patterson

Charlton Heston
Kirk Douglas
Cary Grant
Humphrey Bogart

I can't believe it's not Oliver Ford Davies. Are you sure op?

Not read the full thread but: Graham McTavish? Or Graham Stevenson/ Lewis?

Just watching an ancient Midsomer Murders - could it be William Chubb? Has played a high ranking police officer also according to imdb..

If we're moving on to English actors I suggest Anton Lesser.

Max Von Sydow

THANK YOU SO MUCH, NELLYJAMES!

Now I can't settle either!

I've been right through your posts to see if anyone identified him, and now they haven't and my brian is fizzing wondering who it could be.

I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY NOW!

*My BRAIN!

Not my brian, FFS!

(Though as it happened, my mother had intended to call me Brian, had I been a boy. I would say I'd had a lucky escape, but my girl name is awful, too. I once looked them up. Both were the 3rd most popular name for babies of that sex in the year of my birth - what are the odds?)

*"My BRAIN!

Not my brian, FFS!"*

Maybe that was a subliminal message?

How many Brians have been mentioned?

Bill Patterson?

Stanley Baxter

The tall bald bloke from Howard's Way just popped into my head, character was Ken Masters? Another not Scottish one though! No idea how/why my brain dragged that one up 😂

Stephen Yardley!

Iain Glen

Paul Nicholas?

Anthony head?

Stephen Tomlinson?
