Early-life: Born William Francis Nighy on December 12, 1949, in Caterham, Surrey. His mother was a psychiatric nurse, his father a car mechanic. He has two older siblings and claims he probably would have followed in his dad's footsteps had he not discovered literature in his teens. Although not academically gifted at school, he ran away to Paris to write a novel. After failing to put pen to paper, he returned to the UK to become a journalist, but realised he wasn't cut out for it. On the advice of a girlfriend, he went to drama school.
Career: Nighy honed his craft at Liverpool's Everyman Theatre in the 1970s. He made his TV debut in 1980 in sitcom Agony. His first film, Eye of the Needle, came a year later. He has juggled acclaimed stage appearances with TV and film work. His role as a randy lecturer in 1991's The Men's Room made him a heart-throb, but he didn't become familiar to audiences until a string of hits beginning with 1998's Still Crazy, followed by Auf Wiedersehen, Pet, State of Play, and Love Actually. He also starred in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the Pirates of the Caribbean sequels, Stormbreaker and Underworld: Evolution. Other projects include Valkyrie, Underworld: Rise of the Lycans, The Boat That Rocked, G-Force, Wild Target. The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and playwright David Hare's Worricker trilogy.
Quote: 'I watched Love Actually and it was good fun but I thought, 'God you're old, you're knackered-looking, you look terrible' - because I do and I am.'
Trivia: Nighy suffers from the condition Dupuytren's contracture, which causes the ring and little finger of each hand to be permanently bent towards the palms. His daughter Mary is an actress.
Miranda Hart (Actor) .. Miss Bates
Born: December 14, 1972 in Torquay
Best Known For: Playing an exaggerated version of herself in the sitcom Miranda.
Early-life: Born Miranda Katharine Hart Dyke on December 14, 1972, in Torquay, to an upper-class family (her auntie lives in Lullingstone Castle in Kent). Her father, David, was a Royal Navy officer who was injured during the Falklands war. Miranda studied politics at Bristol Polytechnic but always wanted to do comedy. She later enrolled at the Academy of Live and Recorded Arts. Before finding fame, Hart worked as a PA and for the Comic Relief charity.
Career: Hart did a stint at the Edinburgh Festival and unsuccessfully tried to pitch a show to BBC executives in 2004. It was attended by Jennifer Saunders who loved her performance so much, she cast her in both French & Saunders and Absolutely Fabulous. Hart also had roles as various characters in sketch show Smack the Pony, and starred in BBC Three's Hyperdrive alongside Nick Frost, which was met with an indifferent response from critics. She was then cast as clumsy cleaner Barbara in Lee Mack's Not Going Out and as 'Tall Karen' in 2007's Monday Monday. After gaining further success with radio shows, she was given her own eponymous series by the BBC. It was to prove a hit with viewers who liked its retro and family-friendly style. She's also enjoyed dramatic acting success with Call the Midwife.
