My Take
Jeff Rawle strikes me as the quintessential British character actor, the sort who quietly props up half of television. From Billy in Billy Liar to George Dent in Drop the Dead Donkey and his long run as Silas Blissett on Hollyoaks, he has been a reliable presence for fifty years, even slipping into Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. That he also writes adds a satisfying double dimension to his craft. Born in Birmingham in 1951, he embodies the versatility and longevity I most respect in actors. He never overpowers a role; he simply makes it real.
