    Old Weir played by Battlestar Galactica's President? SPOILER?

    I have a hunch that the 10,000 year old weir was played by the Madam President from BSG. I think the voice sounds the same as well as the way she spoke. Anyone else think so?

        I dont think the was played by Torri, I know it would be the most logical explanation, but it would be esasier to have someone esle.

          Ah, no, interviews talk about the old age makeup. Really. It's Torri Higginson.

              Not if it's supposed to be her. Hire another actor, have to pay an extra actor, deal with the fact that the fans would nitpick her physical resemblence, and deal with the fact that it's a very character intensive epsiode where both actors would have to be on the EXACT same internal page.

                  The actor who played Janis commented how it was great working with Torri Higgenson. He said in the interview that Torri was a hard worker because she had to work early to get her make-up on..etc.

                    ...hm...not really...With all the advancement in special effects and make up, I just assumed it was Torri in makeup.

                    And I don't think it would be easier to get another actor just to play one episode. That means they would have to spend time casting and such. Might as well use that time and money sticking some prosthetics and make up on an actor you already have, and is familiar with the character already.

                        Or maybe it's Torri *without* makeup... LOL

                          It's Torri with a lot of make-up as they wanted the facial expressions and looks to be similar .. but older. You wouldn't have a 10,000 year old Weir thats looks like McKay now, would you?

                              I could tell it was Torri even in the commercials. Just look at the shape of her face around the mouth and chin.
