Anthony Andrews

Anthony Andrews is, to me, forever Sebastian Flyte from Brideshead Revisited, a performance so defining that it won him both a Golden Globe and a BAFTA and an Emmy nomination. There's a particular kind of refined Englishness he brought to that role that I think few actors could match. Born in Finchley, he is as English as they come. Decades later he was part of the ensemble behind The King's Speech, sharing in a Screen Actors Guild cast award in 2011. I appreciate that his career has stretched across television, film and stage without losing that distinctive poise.
