Robert Carlyle/Dr Nicholas Rush Thunk/Appreciation thread

[chocolate_muffin]

I'm not big on horror either, but I really enjoyed 28 days later, so I should really give 28 weeks later a shot. I probably will now!

I prefered 28 weeks later to the first one, and not because of the reason you might think!
Having said that, he was looking rather fine before all the blood and gore kicked in.

I'm another who thought, Robert Carlyle? Not THE Robert Carlyle? Robert "Hamish McBeth/Full Monty" Carlyle???

I am absolutely stunned that an actor of his calibre has been signed on for SGU.

So anyway, I come bearing gifts

Its going to be really weird as i watched him in hamish mcbeth when i was growing up, when he looked like this

which is so adorable!

[TalkyMcSaysalot]

I don't think he's a hunk but I love his acting , can I stay? My favourite role of his has to be in The Full Monty, I thought he was the most attractive stripper out of the cast, love the humour in that movie. 'theres nout as queer as folk' lol

I am stunned and delighted he's in the Stargate universe Yee!

Ok, definitely need to watch it again! And Hamish... And... maybe an RC marathon leading up to SGU

[perkin127]

im already looking for hamish mcbeth, then i think im going to have a rc marathon yay imjust so happy hes going to be in it, and its made me excited for universe!

[greytop]

When I first saw is name as being in SGU, I looked him up in IMDb. I saw in Eragon as Duzra. He was good in that.

Sorry I hadn't seen him in any others.

[perkin127]

If you havent seen the full monty then you've missed this

[humanityspotential]

I sooo happy RC is going to be in SGU. He's such a versatile actor.

We still get reruns of Hamish MacBeth here is Australia every week, and I never get tired of watching them.

Seeing as one of the purposes of this thread is to thunk

*goes off to check my DigiGuide*

Oh....here we go..there is but on at ridiculous times (I must get myself a Sky Plus box) but here they are:

31.12.08 on BBC 4 at 01.35 the cult of Hamish Macbeth followed by an episode at 02.05.

Then there are episodes every week day and Saturday starting on 5.01.09 at 08.00 and 14.00 on a channel I've never heard of called Alibi (132).

Flyby post -

Robert Carlyle was wonderful in The Full Monty. A clever, delightful actor. I would dearly love to see him as the next Dr Who, mayhaps. 'T'woudst be perfect casting, to my mind.
As for SG-EW - since TPTB are totally hell-bent on destroying the Stargate franchise - the decision to cast RC as some Lost In Space-style Machiavellian scientist alongside a bunch of 90210 jock/bimbo wannabes is just another nail in the franchise coffin.
Suits my agenda since They tossed SGA aside for the new puppy for Xmas.
Not knocking RC - he should be signing up for something less fragile and more career-enhancing than Stargate as it stands today.
Go, Robert Carlyle!
And I do mean 'Go!'
Get the eff out, babe, while the getting's good!
Oh, do feel free to PM me, RC!
No-one else need apply.
