Playing Cutter in Primeval.
Early-life:
Douglas James Henshall was born in Glasgow on November 19, 1965. His mum was a nurse, his father a salesman and he has two older sisters. Although he appeared in school plays, he didn't decide to become an actor until he was 17. Before that, he wanted to be a football commentator or an artist. After graduation, he made ends meet working as an insurance salesman in London, before heading back to Glasgow to join the 7:84 Theatre Group.
Career:
Henshall made his TV debut in an episode of Taggart in 1990, but got his big break three years later when he starred alongside his friend Ewan McGregor in the Dennis Potter drama Lipstick on Your Collar. Henshall went on to star in films including Orphans and This Year's Love, and in 1999 won rave reviews for his performances in the TV dramas Psycho and Kid in the Corner. He's also appeared in Anna Karenina, Lawless Heart, Frances Tuesday, Primeval and The Secret of Crickley Hall. He made his West End debut in 2005 playing Biff Loman in Death of a Salesman alongside Brian Dennehy, and in 2012 portrayed Oliver Cromwell in the play 55 Days. Other projects have included The Secret of Crickley Hall and Doors Open.
Quote:
'I used to say 'no' a lot, waiting for this mythic job that was going to come along. Now I do what's in front of me, rather than what might be round the corner.'
Trivia:
Away from acting, he supports Scottish football team St Mirren.

February 09, 1948
in
Glasgow, Scotland

Playing Chief Superintendent Michael Walker in Trial and Retribution.
Early-life:
Born in Glasgow, Scotland on February 9, 1948. He studied at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama in Glasgow before starting his acting career at the city's Citizens Theatre. He began to get recognised nationally after starring in A Sense of Freedom (1981).
Career:
Hayman's film credits include Sid and Nancy (1986), Hope and Glory (1987) and The Jackal (1997). Between 1997 and 2009, he played Chief Superintendent Michael Walker in the TV crime drama Trial and Retribution. As well as acting, Hayman has also directed film and television productions, including Silent Scream (1990) and The Hawk (1993). More recently, he was cast as Brace in the television series Taboo.
Quote:
'There's a lot of my industry I'm very disenamoured with. Like the world, television is run on greed and ego. It's not creative integrity, and that wears thin after a while.'

Julie Graham
(Actor)
.. Rhona Kelly
Born:
July 24, 1965
in
Irvine, North Ayrshire
Best Known For:
At Home with the Braithwaites.
Early-life:
Born July 24, 1965 in Irvine, North Ayrshire. Her father, John, a singer, left when she was a child. At the age of eight, writer/broadcaster David Webster became her stepfather. Her mother, Betty Gillin, who was also an actress, died of lung cancer, aged 50, when her daughter was 18. Julie made her TV debut in a 1986 episode of Taggart. It was the role of Alison McGrellis in Casualty in 1988 that helped boost her profile.
Career:
Graham also starred in the TV series Harry and Life Support. However, she became a household name in comedy drama At Home with the Braithwaites. In 2003 she starred in Kay Mellor's steamy series Between the Sheets, and the same year appeared with Martin Clunes in the drama William and Mary (they were reunited years later when she made a guest appearance in Doc Martin). Her film credits include Silent Scream, Nuns on the Run, The Near Room, Preaching to the Perverted, Bedrooms and Hallways and Some Voices. She's also appeared in a revamp of cult 1970s series Survivors, The Bill, and was the best thing about short-lived BBC archaeological drama Bonekickers. More recently, Graham has enjoyed success with a starring role in ITV's period crime drama The Bletchley Circle and the BBC's Shetland.
Quote:
'Yes I've taken my clothes off and, yes, I've played saucy roles. But for god's sake it's not what I've built my career on. I try to find roles that are a little bit outside the box.'
Trivia:
She is a patron of children's hospice Chestnut Tree House.
