Peter Guinness

[Tigon Man]

After watching Peter Guinness play yet another villain/hitman/general nutter in the BBC's Hidden, I thought it was about time he had his own thread.

Possessed of one of the most distinctive faces on the screen (if not name) Mr Guinness has played scheming villains for over thirty years.
His TV credits include Casualty, Sea of Souls, The New Professionals, Smiley's People (As a Hari Krishna Monk ) The Bill, New Tricks, and my personal favourite the mad Norman priest Father Ailnoth in Cadfael. Well he did have a Saxon congregation..

Blessed if not with looks he has a great speaking voice and is a regular on voiceovers/commercials.

His films include The Saint, Alien 3 and The Keep.

A small part but he was perfect as the Coroner in the BBC adaption of Bleak House 2005..
