I know Ron Perlman, and he's a great actor, but he is certainly no Nobby He has a "great" face, but he's the wrong size, shape and age for Nobby... I mean, Nobby Hellboy ? :oops:

Silvermoth, great suggestion!

And Ron Perlman? He towers over most of his colleagues... at least he seems to be. I am sure there is some role in the DW universe for him, but not [i:235259b8f8]Nobby[/i:235259b8f8]!

I'd vote for Detritus Or one of the barbarians... Wait a few years and he could do Cohen

Yeah I thought of Cohen as well but I always pictured Vinnie Johns as Detritus.

I voted "Someone Else" with no thoughts as to who could do it, but simply because Tony Robinson will always be Baldrick to all Blackadder fans, and the parts are just too similar. (Thinking about that, a weird (or even wyrd) thought crossed my mind - how about Tony Robinson as Dr Who?)

He would be the most eclectic Doctor ever. Like Tom Baker on speed!

Thanks![/quote:693e7608bb]

The guy you suggested (who's name I can't spell) would be perfect. Espiecally if you've seen his very pratchett performance in PotC.

Does anyone think that old guy in Stepto & Son (can't remember his name), would have been good as Nobby? Of course, the fact that he's been wearing a wooden overcoat for quite some time now could present some problems! Oh well, just a thought.
