Clive Russell

Clive Russell (born 7 December 1945 in Reeth, North Riding of Yorkshire) is a Scottish actor who was born in England but grew up in Fife. He is known for his roles as Chief Inspector Frederick Abberline in Ripper Street (2012-16), Angus O'Connor in Happiness (2001-03) and Brynden Tully in the HBO series Game of Thrones (2013-16).

He also appeared in the Scottish sitcoms Still Game and Rab C Nesbitt as Big Innes and in teen drama Hollyoaks as Jack Osborne's brother Billy Brodie. He also played the part of Krebs in the made-for-TV film Fatherland (1994), a favourite of mine.

I met Clive at Collectormania Glasgow in August 2014.
