Just booked tickets to see Grey Davies. Here’s hoping for a bowl of polenta chips

David Morrissey was amazing in The Long Shadow about Peter Sutcliffe's victims. He was a policeman.
Makeup did such a good job, close up you could see all his broken capillaries and blotches on his face (I presume he doesn't have them naturally).
I didn't realise he's married to Esther Freud, who wrote one of my favourite books Hideous Kinky.

Oh my god! Sulky Bond…never understood the love for Daniel Craig…he should have been a Bond villain not Bond! Bond is meant to be suave, sophisticated, naturally charismatic and charming, not some 5foot steroid inflated pouty sullen pipsqueek! Craig looked like a guy who goes to the gym twice a day just working on his chest and dropping weights loudly (you know those really annoying tears in the gym making noise in the hope that someone will notice them) then hangs out in a pub after, sitting in the same seat, ordering the same pint, complaining that his wife left him and his kids won’t talk to him anymore cos he was spending too much time on his model railway! He had ABSOLUTELY no charisma!
Piers was the best bond and I would challenge anyone to a dual who claims otherwise
My nana swore for years she was only 38 and all of us grandkids believed her. It was only one day when they talked about my mum coming up for 35 that I thought it out and realised it didn't make sense. In my defence, I was around twelve at the time and she was VERY convincing and had been for years. Honest to god she was so good with the flannel that whatever she told you, you always believed it.

I have lost count of the times I have been forced to watch them because of my dad. I could probably recite every one of them off by heart and the Pierce era especially Goldeneye is my favourite. My dad was always a Sean fan and thinks I should be too as we are Scottish.
Weak as piss tea but when Sean used to be a milkman, his area included where my great-grandmother stayed.

OMG - thank you, thank you, thank you! I honestly can't thank you enough! How on earth did you find them? I have literally searched in every way I could think of! Already downloaded them.
I am not a hugger in RL at all but I'm sending you a HUGE virtual hug right now!

They arent together any more, hes been seen out with a new lady.
He's one of those actors where if you see his name attached you know it'll be a good watch
Thank you from me also, what a treat to be able to watch these again!
Im a fan of David Morrissey too. Going back a bit, I loved Born Romantic, also a TV movie he was excellent in about a couple and their prem baby. This Little Life.
David Morrisey is a hugely underrated actor, -he always acts everyone else off the screen.
Same as Samantha Morton, you realise how tit all the other actors in the scene are once she opens her mouth.

Both magnificent, I agree. Samantha Morton never fails to impress. She's stunning in every way.
I love Gary Oldman but he is (as his name suggests) old. He's 66, so a bit of stretch to see him as representing the current generation of actors
Semi-related to the Bond discourse, in that he once played a Bond villain, I was thinking just now that I'd quite like Sean Bean to play Vimes in a Discworld adaptation. You could actually nearly do the main city watch characters just with the Game Of Thrones cast (Andy Serkis as Nobby being the exception).
And as I've said before, the witches in my head will always be Judi Dench as Granny Weatherwax, Miriam Margoyles as Nanny Ogg and Jennifer Saunders as Magrat (the ideal choice would actually be Emma Chambers, but sadly she's dead).
Also, unrelated to the above, Gary Oldman is younger than Gary Numan

Thank you for saying it!
I loved DM in Blackpool. He was hot AF in that
Have you seen state of play the tv series? Political drama. Really good and as an amazing cast, David Morrissey, Kelly McDonald, Bill Nighy, John Simm, Marc Warren, James McAvoy, Philip Glenister, the hound, Polly Walker, Tom Burke and Sean Gilder.
