    Old school mobster got blown away on the forecourt of a Las Vegas Hotel in an episode of CSI I watched the other night. It took me a minute to place where I knew him from

    Didn't recognise Herschel with no beard and 2 legs ;)

    Glen appeared in a flashback scene in the Big Bang Theory as the flatmate moving out of Sheldon's apartment (I think it's the ep that gives the origin of the Room-mate agreement)

    Andrea was in an ep of Due South (the one where Benton is in hospital after being shot by Ray as he was about to leave with Victoria) - she was his physio........

    I knew Andrew Lincolin as Simon from Teachers - that's the only reason I actually started watching TWD at all, didn't even know what it was about before I started watching the show......tragic, but true

    David Morrissey (The Governor) in State of Play the BBC series that inspired the film. Also in The Other Boleyn Girl, Blackpool and an episode of Dr Who.

    Scott Wilson (Hershall) was Catherine's father in CSI, and he's been in quite a few horror films, including one of The Exorcist sequels (I think it's 3 but I could be wrong), The Host (which is awesome) and Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (which I would thoroughly recommend to anyone looking for a horror film that is a little bit different, for want of a better word :) )

    Totally forgot Tyreese was Cutty, and Sarah Wayne Callies was equally annoying in Prison Break.

    I remember Andrew Lincoln from Love Actually originally, I was slightly dubious about him when he was initially cast as a result, but I really enjoy him as Rick now, especially as the original woodenness has gone away! :)

    How weird, just browsing this thread right now while watching the movie Dead Man Walking when lo and behold the priest at the beginning looks familiar. I take a better look and realise that it is Hershel!

    I've seen the Governor in a trailer for new movie Welcome to the Punch.

    Also saw Herschel in Junebug, more of a chick flick than in his other roles.

    Michael Rooker is actually a very well regarded actor. He's superb in his "breakout role" in Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer.

    Yeah, that was a great movie.

    One thing I like about the actor is that he actually has a great face for screen, full of character and very expressive. I often get sick of "pretty" hollywood faces, bland, boring and usually botoxed. Michael Rooker has none of the above, he has an onscreen presence that is entirely down to his ability as an actor to make us believe him.

    2.05 then, Jesus Christ, are you that fÚcking pedantic. :rolleyes:

    Theres no need for the personal abuse. If you tell me to look at 2.06 I go to 2.06 in the video and pause the screen. At 2.06 the lead singer is on the screen. There is nothing pedantic about it, if you want someone to look at something then maybe try to give instructions that lead them to look at the same thing as you and not become abusive when they look at what you instruct and see nothing of interest.

    Seriously, not pedantic? There is a second in the difference? And the original poster was 6 seconds out. I'm just saying, if someone tells me to look at something 2 minutes into a vid, I'll start the vid at 1.55 and watch for at least 20 seconds to make sure I miss nothing.

    Thats nice for you. I follow instructions to the letter when it comes down to someone telling me to look at a particular second on a video.

    Frank Darabont who used to produce Walking Dead directed The Mist which starred the actors who played Andrea, Dale and Carol.
    Also the guy who plays Darryl is the dad of model Helena Christensens kid Magnus (yup Magnus Reedus). He was in that awful Kate Hudson film Gossip
    Andrew Lincoln played the gay guy in This Life in the '90's

    No, he played Egg, the one who dropped out of law to work in a caff. You're thinking of Warren, the Welsh guy who was played by Jason Hughes and who has since played John Nettles' sidekick in Midsomer Murders.

    ...and had a sensitive part of his anatomy squeezed by Gene Hackman in Mississippi Burning.

    He also had a small part in Tombstone, playing a (relatively) good guy.

    I just watched 'Lockout' with Guy Pearce and the guy who plays Morgan is in it. By anyone's standards it's a terrible movie but I loved it! The actor who plays Morgan and Guy Pearce are very good in it.
