About this Broadcast
Death in Disguise
Season 1, Episode 5
Barnaby visits a new age commune, where a man has fallen to his death, or may have been pushed. The dead man turns out to have a connection to the leader's shady past - they set the commune up together as a confidence trick, but the leader came to believe in what he preaches. A further death raises greater suspicion, especially since a vast inheritance might be coming the group's way. Guest starring Stephen Moyer (True Blood)

John Nettles
(Actor)
.. DCI Tom Barnaby
Born:
October 11, 1943
in
St Austell, Cornwall
Best Known For:
Playing Jim Bergerac.
Early-life:
John Vivian Drummond Nettles was born on October 11, 1943, in St Austell, Cornwall. He was adopted at birth by a carpenter and his wife, who was a cleaner. John later discovered his biological mother was an unmarried Irish nurse who died of tuberculosis at the age of 28. Despite these humble beginnings, he won a scholarship to study philosophy and history at Southampton University. He trained to be a teacher, but drifted into acting after appearing in a touring version of the play Camus during his time at university.
Career:
While appearing in amateur drama productions, Nettles was spotted by an agent who arranged work for him at the Royal Court Theatre. He made his debut as a standard bearer in Macbeth, opening doors for Alec Guinness. His first movie was The Red, White and Black in 1970. His big break came in 1972's A World At War, followed by a four-year stint in The Liver Birds. Nettles became a household name thanks to Bergerac, which ran for 10 years until 1991. TV projects since include Romeo And Juliet, The Hound of the Baskervilles and Midsomer Murders. He has also provided the narration for such programmes as Airport and The Hunt.
Quote:
"I live in the tranquility and splendour which befits someone of my seniority."
Trivia:
Nettles received an OBE in 2010.

Colin Farrell
(Actor)
.. Ken Beavers
Born:
May 31, 1976
in
Dublin
Best Known For:
His partying lifestyle.
Early-life:
Born Colin James Farrell on May 31, 1976, in Castleknock, Dublin. He's the youngest of four children, and one of his sisters, Claudine, is now his personal assistant. His father, Eamon, was a professional footballer, and Farrell thought of following in his footsteps until he realised his love of drinking and girls got in the way of training. Instead, he concentrated on acting after being taken to a drama club by his brother.
Career:
Farrell dropped out of Gaeity Drama School in Dublin, but landed a part in Ballykissangel a few months later. Roles in The War Zone, and Ordinary Decent Criminal followed before Hollywood beckoned. An acclaimed performance in Tigerland in 2000 led to him being cast in Hart's War, and Minority Report. Phone Booth, his first lead role, was a hit and made him a force to be reckoned with. Since then, Farrell has starred in such films as The Recruit, Daredevil, Intermission, Alexander, Miami Vice, In Bruges (for which he won a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor), The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, Crazy Heart and Ondien. He always has a number of films in the pipeline.
Quote:
"I'm in no hurry to get anywhere. I don't have any plans. If you did in this business, you'd destroy yourself."
Trivia:
He failed an audition to become a member of Boyzone.

Stephen Moyer
(Actor)
.. Christopher Wainwright
Born:
October 11, 1969
in
Brentwood, Essex
Best Known For:
True Blood.
Early-life:
Born Stephen John Emery on October 11, 1969, in Brentwood, Essex. The acting bug bit him when he was a youngster, and he proved just how talented he was during performances with local theatre groups; he later formed his own company, The Reject Society. He then studied at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art and spent the next five years tackling stage roles with the Royal Shakespeare Company and the Oxford Stage Company.
Career:
Moyer's TV debut came with a regular role in the ITV sitcom Conjugal Rites. He also had a recurring part in miniseries Castles and acclaimed drama The Grand. He also turned up in episodes of Casualty, Waking the Dead, Cadfael, A Touch of Frost, Midsomer Murders and Sunburn. His first film part was the title role in 1997's Prince Valiant. He's since appeared in Quills, Trinity and Perfect. Arguably his biggest British TV role came in NY-LON. He began to get noticed in Hollywood thanks to the miniseries The Starter Wife. He's played vampire Bill in American drama True Blood since 2008, although he's no stranger to televisual vampires having appeared in two episodes of Ultraviolet in 1998.
Quote:
"I'll get 10 or 11-year-olds coming up and asking for my autograph, and I say, ‘Have you seen that show?' and they go, ‘Yeah, love it.' I couldn't sit in the same room as my mother and watch that show. I mean, it's seriously racy!"
