Rory Kinnear

Rory Kinnear was only 12 years old when his father, Roy Kinnear died in a tragic horse riding accident, while on location in Madrid, Spain, filming A Volta dos Mosqueteiros (1989). "The Return of the Musketeers" was one of two films which were dedicated to Roy, the other being A Man for All Seasons (1988).

I can tell you it's all bullshit. It feels like my name has been randomly chosen to satisfy the public appetite. I can firmly deny that I am the next Doctor Who (2005). I don't know what the motive was - to be honest I can't even be bothered to think about it. Having said that, the rumour doesn't do any harm. I just know the show as something that's out there in the ether. I realise that it's really popular and that it's an important job for an actor.
