TIL Anthony & Murray Head (Jesus Christ Superstar, One Night in Bangkok) were brothers

PS Tony also great as recurring character Herc in the comedy Cabin Pressure with Benedict Cumberbatch & Roger Allam

Man, RIP

I love Ted Lasso and Merlin, and Buffy. He was a good actor.

He plays a charming asshole so well he must have actually been incredibly nice IRL (I feel like that always correlates).

Giles was also a fun character.

Damn, what a shame. Recently did a rewatch of Buffy and Giles is such a vibe.

Head first found fame in the UK in the 1980s as the face of Nescafe coffee adverts on TV.

The US too. Although I don’t think I realized it until now that he was from those adverts.

I'll put away my hope that they'd commission a 3rd series of Back and that it'd have more Charismatic Mike.
