knick knack paddy THWACK!

i have a strange knack for being able to identify actors. except, these aren't your run-of-the-mill hollywood actors. they're actors who have appeared on red dwarf and suddenly pop up in some blockbuster movie. like, chris barrie was the butler in tomb raider. that's the more obvious example. mark williams was mr. weasley in harry potter II. i saw him first as peterson on red dwarf. funny how addicted i was to that show. red dwarf is really an acquired taste. much like a fine wine. dry and bitter at first. then it makes you warm and fuzzy all over, with a sweet aftertaste that makes you giggle. i highly recommend it, especially if you love british comedy. not quite monty python or mr. bean (etc.), but it has the greatest insults. and it's science fiction...well, kinda.
