Paul Brooke:
Unmistakable wonky-eyed actor who often
plays intelligence men, civil servants, shifty doctors and dodgy
accountants. Most famous, apparently, for an uncharacteristic
bare-chested bit-part in 'Return Of The Jedi', but you probably know him
from 'Minder', 'Blott On The Landscape', 'Blackadder', or something in
the 'Marple'/'Bergerac'/
