Born: October 15, 1969 in Sheffield
Best Known For: Playing McNulty in The Wire.
Early-life: Dominic Gerard Fe West was born on October 15, 1969, in Sheffield. He's of Irish descent but grew up in a village just outside the South Yorkshire city. His father, George, owned a plastics factory. His mother, Moya, was a housewife. West is the youngest of six children and was educated at Eton, where he was encouraged to take up acting as a career. After leaving school, he spent several months as a cattle-herder in Argentina before gaining an English Literature degree from Trinity College, Dublin.
Career: West enjoyed early success on the stage, and appeared in several movies, including Spice World and Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace before taking a break to join the acrobatic Argentinean circus De La Guarda. He then had a supporting role in Chicago before landing the part of drunken but lovable detective McNulty in hugely acclaimed TV series The Wire. West has also appeared in 300, Hannibal Rising and The Devil's Whore. In 2011 he received critical acclaim for his roles as TV news anchor Hector Madden in the 1950s-set BBC drama The Hour and serial killer Fred West in ITV1 drama Appropriate Adult. He also continues to appear on stage, most notably in his native Sheffield.
Quote: "I don't know why British actors are getting big parts in American TV shows. Maybe it's because we're cheap."

Born: December 06, 1962 in Luton
Best Known For: His appearances in several James Bond movies.

Career: Salmon worked steadily on the big and small screens with small roles in such projects as Lovejoy, Between the Lines, Soldier Soldier and All Men Are Mortal. A longer stint in Kay Mellor's 1997 TV series Gold made casting directors sit up and take notice. Later that year he played Charles Robinson for the first time in Tomorrow Never Dies - a part he reprised in The World Is Not Enough and Die Another Day. Salmon has also appeared in Resident Evil, AVP: Alien vs Predator, Match Point and cult series Hex.

Quote: "All I ever wanted as a kid was to be Paul Robeson, mixed with Miles Davis and Duke Ellington - which I think is a pretty cool combination."
Trivia: He supports Luton Town FC.
