Very happy am I that I looked at the link to Wikipedia about Dominic Monaghan before questioning whether he is German or not. Indeed, he is more German than Irish or English after having spent most of his formative years there. Surprising. I really liked his performances in

"Hetty Wainthrop." He made a titillating appearance in that, in a shower room. I expect Patricia Routledge was amused but not the least bit interested.

Sounds like you can teach us all a thing or two about the handsome actor. And maybe get us invites to his family reunion? Swoon. :-)

Thank you for the compliment, but I only know what I read on Wikipedia about him.

He is forty-eight years old this year. (!) Saints preserve us.

I typically scan and link to Wikipedia, so I need to slow down and read more. :-)

Now I wanna watch Beautiful Thing from the 1990s. Such a wonderful gay film...from the UK of course!

How about a quick peep at My Beautiful Launderette(or Laundromat in 🇺🇸😛) a 1985 gay film which had Daniel Day-Lewis in one of his first film roles. Maybe you already know of it, if not it's worth squirreling it out 😎 It's not easy in parts but worth it in the

end. Cheers DougT 🇫🇴

And of course the Joe Orton Entertaining Mr Sloane has plenty of English character actors in secondary roles
