Daniel Craig (Actor) .. Ray
Born: March 02, 1968 in Chester
Best Known For: Being James Bond.
Early-life: Daniel Wroughton Craig was born in Chester on March 2, 1968. His father is a former merchant seaman and pub landlord, his mother an art teacher. Daniel has an older sister, Lea, and knew from an early age he wanted to be an actor, but failed to get into drama school at 17. He spent time with the National Youth Theatre before being accepted by the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
Career: Craig started out on stage, eventually making his film debut in 1992's The Power of One. TV series Our Friends in the North and TV movie The Fortunes and Misfortunes of Moll Flanders made him a star in 1996. The movies Elizabeth (1998), Love is the Devil (1998), Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001), Road to Perdition (2002), The Mother (2003), Sylvia (2003), Enduring Love (2004), Layer Cake (2004) and Munich (2005) followed. He was controversially cast in a five-film deal as James Bond, but proved doubters wrong with an outstanding performance in Casino Royale (2006). He's since followed it up with Quantum of Solace (2008) and Skyfall (2012). He's also appeared in Cowboys & Aliens (2011), and the US remake of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011).
Quote: 'I always wanted to be an actor. I had the arrogance to believe I couldn't be anything else.'
Trivia: Skyfall made more than $1billion at the box office.
Julie Graham (Actor) .. Mandy
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.
Kelly Macdonald (Actor) .. Laura
Born: February 23, 1976 in Glasgow
Best Known For: Trainspotting
Early-life: Born February 23, 1976, in Glasgow. She has an older brother called David. Her parents split when she was nine. Her mother Patsy (who, bizarrely, has been nicknamed Wee Fat Moll by her daughter) is a stress counsellor. Macdonald dabbled with journalism as a 14-year-old, and had a story published in her local newspaper. Two years later she dropped out of college, but while working in a bar decided to become an actress after serving drama students.
Career: Macdonald thought about going to drama school, but changed her mind when an open audition led to her landing the role of schoolgirl temptress Diane in Trainspotting. Her nude scene with Ewan McGregor brought her lots of attention and led to roles in Stella Does Tricks, Cousin Bette, and Elizabeth. Her most impressive performance to date came in Oscar-winning drama Gosford Park in 2001, alongside the likes of Maggie Smith and Michael Gambon. She will be seen on the big screen later this year with Colin Farrell in Intermission, and Johnny Depp in Neverland.
Quote: On Trainspotting's nude scene: 'I can't imagine my life if I hadn't done it. It was part of my youth.'
Trivia: Trainspotting (1996) was released on Macdonald's 20th birthday.
Peter McDonald (Actor) .. Dave
David Morrissey (Actor) .. Pete
Born: June 21, 1964 in Liverpool
Best Known For: Playing The Governor in AMC TV series The Walking Dead.
Early-life: David Mark Morrissey is the youngest of four children and was born in Liverpool on June 21, 1964. When Morrissey was 15, his father, a shoe repairman and key cutter, died after suffering from a blood disorder. David was inspired to become an actor after seeing Ken Loach's film Kes. Aged 16 he joined the Everyman Youth Theatre during the golden age of dramatists Alan Bleasdale and Willy Russell. His contemporaries included Cathy Tyson and Ian Hart. He also spent time working on sets and costumes for a Wolverhampton theatre company.
Career: Morrissey's big break came at the age of 18 when he landed the lead role of Billy Rizley in Channel 4's first drama series, One Summer. After that he trained at Rada. A steady stream of small-screen and theatre roles followed. At the 2004 Bafta awards, Morrissey was nominated for Best TV Actor for his performance in the drama serial, State of Play. In the same year, The Deal, in which he co-starred as Gordon Brown to Michael Sheen's Tony Blair, won the award for Best Single Drama. Projects since include Blackpool, Cape Wrath, Red Riding, Basic Instinct 2, Nowhere Boy, Mrs Mandela, Doctor Who and a starring role in adaptations of Mark Billingham's Tom Thorne books for Sky1. In 2012, he joined the cast of The Walking Dead, and continues to work on stage whenever his busy schedule allows.
Quote: 'You never have any control over what people write or what they think, but there is a sense of me as a working-class lad done very well. I don't know where that comes from.'
Trivia: Morrissey is a lifelong Liverpool FC fan.
