Was he in Brigit Jone's diary? I don't think I remember him very well.

Yes he was in BJD.  It's funny I was thinking of him as a possible the other day (after seeing Pride & Preudice again on TV) but I had him down as Sirius as, to start with, Sirius is hidden beneath hair, girme and dirt, thus giving the actor involved time to convince of of his bona fides before he get to see him spruced up and the real character has to stand up and be counted.

I was a bit against Ewan McGregor as a Sirius or Lupin to start with but he has a wide range of acting experience and could do the thoughtful and gentle bit rather well, he can also do a very good THIN!!!!!.  However, if he IS playing at saving the universe it may be our loss.

I hope they give it to an actor who is not particularly famous, but maye well established.  However, as I only do theatre, not much TV or cinema, except Harry Potter and only one or two more a year at most, my suggestions are very limited.  I just wish I knew what Babylon 5 was ....
