For those that also follow Game of Thrones, they recognized the actor who played the head of the East India Company. The High Priest of the Sparrows met his maker once again . . . Mike

That is Jonathan Pryce. If memory serves, he has been a bad guy in a Bond film, as well as being a bad guy in the DeNiro film 'Ronin'. He has been doing films since the 70's and has several dozen to his credit. I like him as bad guys. -- Al

Wasn't he also the governor in the Pirates of the Caribbean and also in The Brothers Grimm?

I looked Jonathan Pryce up on Wikipedia . . . A very impressive acting career. He was Gov Weatherby Swann in 3 Pirates of the Caribbean movies and he played Gen. Vavarin Delatombe in the Brothers Grimm. He has many credits to his name and has been in many, many movies that you would recognize . . .

Don't forget Jonathan Pryce playing "The Right Ordinary Horatio Jackson"the Mayor of the besieged city in that most wonderful of movies Terry Gillman's The Adventures of Baron Munchhausen. Sting was in it too as a cameo of the brave grenadier executed for his display of heroism!

One of my favorites...

Also watched the 1967 version of Far from the Maddening Crowd. Made me want to collect Britain's original farm series as I recognized the wagons, characters, and livestock as potential models.

It might be fun to recreate scenes from the movie with a hollow cast collection, now more affordable like never before due to eBay and the apparent lack of interest with vintage farming lead.

Cheers

Really like Tom Hardy, has kinda come on strong as an actor lately, it's fun to watch actors develop from small parts into really good actors, see he will be a pilot in the new Dunkirk movie.
