My Take
Simon Williams strikes me as the kind of dependable British character actor who quietly holds a production together. Best known as James Bellamy in Upstairs, Downstairs, he became the go-to face for aristocratic and upper-middle-class roles, then proved his range in the sitcom Don't Wait Up and the medical drama Holby City. Since 2014 he has also voiced Justin Elliott in BBC Radio 4's The Archers, and I suspect his longevity comes precisely from that versatility. He is a craftsman, not a celebrity, and I value that.
