I don’t know if you have seen any episodes of the long running British series “Silent Witness” which stars an actor called Tom Ward. (Apparently he is leaving the show) I had seen a bit of it a number of years ago – before he was in it I think – and only started watching what I think are newer episodes on BBC Canada a few weeks ago. There was another episode on tonight and later when “looking him up” found that he has a bit of a resemblance to “our” Richard. He is even the same age. Adding link to BBC about the program – hope it works.
I saw him in Vanity Fair which I also have on DVD and I agree, there is a certain resemblance, especially from certain angles. And no, he doesn’t “do” it for me the way RA does, either. But then, who does???
Teuchter, I love Silent Witness! I used to watch it back in the golden days when I had BBC Prime. I loved Tom Ward’s character in the series. I was always rooting for him to get together with Emilia Fox’s character. Never happened as far as I know. Tom’s very handsome and I like him as an actor but not on the same level as Richard of course. TW never had that “hit-me-in-the-solar-plexus” effect on me. But you’re right, TW and RA do resemble each other a little.
Teuchter, I’ve always thought that Tom Ward bears a resemblance to Richard too, and I like him as an actor, but isn’t it funny how that familiar poleaxing just doesn’t happen, even with said resemblance and his good looks.
Glad to hear that both of you saw the resemblance and it wasn’t just me! I looked up the last few episodes of SW I had recorded and they are dated 2011, so pretty recent. Definitely no “poleaxing” for me either even though I liked his Harry Cunningham character! Only Richard has THAT kind of effect on me and does he ever!
There’s a screencap I have of him as John Mulligan in profile looking up and you can really see the resemblance there. Yeah, I can look at other actors and think, attractive man, good actor–but it’s just not the same.
Thorin has certainly got The Look!! Silly WordPress forgot me again, had to log in and of course I mistyped my name..Just corrected it.
I hate that…it does it to me, too. i am lucky i remember this password!
It doesn’t recognize me from time to time, either. I know how annoying it is.
Leave you alone for half a day and look at what you get up to! Quadruple Thorins, oh, my…
I have to try to do something to keep up my spirits, you know, in between the coughing and excess of phlegm.
Yeah you do. I’m sorry that you are still plagued by the crud. I know how disheartening it can be.
Keep at it Angie! Love the Smorgasbords!! Thorin sure “has the look”! *thud*
Doesn’t he though? I mean, that pose, his expression—yummmmm.

Comments please! BTW – he doesn’t “do” anything for me although I am enjoying the series.
I’m sure you’ll guess I’m referring to the dark guy on the left!!
