Robert Lindsay

Robert Lindsay

Highest Rated: 61% Wimbledon (2004)

Lowest Rated: 9% Grace of Monaco (2014)

Birthday: Dec 13, 1949

Birthplace: Ilkeston, Derbyshire, England, UK

This dark-haired, pleasant-faced British actor is equally at home in musical comedy or drama. Often cast as working-class blokes, Robert Lindsay made a splash on both sides of the Atlantic in the mid-1980s starring in the revival of "Me and My Girl." The RADA-trained actor had already become known to his countrymen as the pub-bound, would-be revolutionary Wolfie Smith in the British sitcom "Citizen Smith" (BBC, 1977-80).
