Changes: Jonathan Pryce

Revision as of 02:28, 14 January 2020

Jonathan Pryce played the Master in The Curse of Fatal Death, a spoof produced by the BBC in the 1990s for Comic Relief.

Pryce has since laughingly referred to his role as a spoof Master as spoiling his chances to ever play the real Master.[1]

Among his film roles: villain Elliot Carver in the James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies, Governor Swann in the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, Mr Dark in Something Wicked This Way Comes and Sam Lowry in Brazil. In 2007, Pryce played Sherlock Holmes in the television serial Sherlock Holmes and the Baker Street Irregulars, opposite Bill Paterson as Dr Watson.
