    1. He’s been great in a number of series and movies. The Missing was the last series I watched him in.

      1. He is also in this powerful British drama series about cops and an American woman who arrives as the new boss. It is very funny. Broadchurch the newest one is also very good. I have watched just three episodes till now about a serial rapist..

      2. I liked him in Murphy’s Law and Monroe and I’m not sure when season three of Broadchurch will be shown here, but I’m looking forward to watching the new season.
