Very true. Phenomenal actor. Speaking of The Full Monty, Tom Wilkinson is an excellent actor, too. And, unrelatedly, Miranda Richardson.

How about Clive Owen? Jeremy Northam? Stephen Fry? Kristin Scott Thomas? Colin Firth? Helena Bonham-Carter? Jim Broadbent? Ben Kingsley? Edward Fox? Richard Attenborough? Stanley Kubrick (oops, no, he's American)? Malcolm McDowell? Peter Sellers? Arthur C. Clarke? Alan Moore? Neil Gaiman? Grant Morrison? Rik Mayall?

I think I'm out for now.
