Ricky Tomlinson
Although best known as the lovable couch-potato, Jim Royle, in 'The Royle Family, his off-screen life has been far more interesting. He has been a plasterer, banjo player, comic, union agitator, political activist, award-winning actor and an unwilling guest of Her Majesty's prison service. Respected for his honesty, wit and integrity, he makes for outstanding value in all roles.
