Allan Quatermain et la Pierre des ancêtres (2004)

Marsden's credits are numerous and span a half century of widely, and wildly, different genres and character types. Not the least is his portrayal of the mysterious and mystical character John Stockton in the long-running ITV series Les souvenirs de Sherlock Holmes (1991) starring Jeremy Brett. In The Last Vampyre (1993) Marsden brings, literally to life, Sir Conan Doyle's take on the ages' old, indeed historic, legend most known to modern viewers through Bram Stoker's 1897 Gothic horror novel "Dracula."

Trivia
Working full time in the theatre. Roy has chosen to devote his full attention to acting and directing on stage. His latest effort was his own production of "A Christmas Carol" that he not only directed but also played Scrooge. His days as Commander Adam Dalgliesh are surely over as the new BBC production of PD James' latest book "Death in Holy Orders" will star Martin Shaw as Dalgliesh.

Quotes
[on his television series Airline (1982)] It was one of the most enjoyable programs I ever made. Learning to fly those old DC-3s was terrific. And I enjoyed playing Ruskin enormously because he had hope. Of course, he was a pain up the tushie most of the time, but then you'd see that youthful desire to actually get out and triumph against enormous odds. I identified with that character the most.
