Ricky Tomlinson

Actor
87 years (Sep 26, 1939)Blackpool, England, UK
Ricky Tomlinson has been in the trade long enough to be called a veteran actor who has rarely been away from the screen for long. 'The 51st State' is another title that gets mentioned. The filmography reaches back well before the best-known title. More of the credits fall under comedy than under anything else. The career now covers more than 45 years. The role of Paedo Pete in 'Grimsby' is the one that keeps being brought up.
