I have seen Keeley in BBC's Wives and Daughters and I liked her, I haven't seen her in much else besides Vicar of Dibley in the eps with RA but she didn't have much screen time. (The first time the banners of the forum started featuring each Spooks' character when it was Zoe's I thought 'why does she look so familiar?' Confused )

As for Matthew McFadyen even if I'm 23 I saw Colin's P&P first and then MM's so I do like much better Colin's Mr.Darcy.

Oh yes I've seen them in the Vicar of Dibley too! Big Grin

Has anyone seen Raza Jaffrey in Mistresses? I thought he was amazing and absolutely completely adorable as the poor betrayed husband. And a fantastic actor, esp. that scene when he finds out he's not the father :'(

Just rewatched Bridget Jones again today and Gemma Jones as the mum still makes me laugh sooo much even after the millionth time I've seen haha

Haven't seen Raza in Mistresses, but the advert looked good Smile

Gemma Jones is just hilarious in Bridget Jones' Diary - the lavender wedding in the second film is just Big Grin

And I think she's very good as Madam Pomfrey in the Harry Potter films!

I haven't realize it was Gemma Jones who played Bridget's mom! Now I just want to re-watch just to see her. I remember the character and I can't place her as 'Connie' Rolleyes

I discovered that a couple of months ago, so when I watched the Half Blood Prince I looked for her and just grinned when she appeared Big Grin

I like it when she tells Harry to (in not quite these words) to quit moaning about the Skele-Grow in Chamber of Secrets Tongue

I was shocked when I was watching Mr Bean and suddenly MM appeared!! I nearly recognised him.
Here is the video if you want to see him Smile

Saw Tim McInnerny (Oliver Mace) last night in Miss Marple. I am still seeing an average of one spooks actor a day, I'm not sure if this means I need to get out more!!!

I have discovered so many great tv shows, movies and performances that I would have never seen thanks to Spooks! And just not ones that involve actors from Spooks.
Some of my favourites that have not been mentioned in previous posts on this thread:
MM - Warriors/Death at a Funeral (the outtakes are hysterical)/In My Father's Den/Secret Life
RPJ - Cambridge Spies (!!!!!!!!)/Casanova/The Four Feathers
RA - The Golden Hour (shame only 4 eps)/The Impressionists/ShakespeaRE-Told with KH
And there are so many others - but these are the ones that come to mind before my first cuppa tea!
