Toby Stephens
Toby Stephens, much like a fine thoroughbred race horse, has an impeccable pedigree, produced by champion Shakespearean sire/actor Sir Robert Stephens and Oscar winning mare/actress Dame Maggie Smith. The fiery colt romped home to early victories in the movie Orlando - starting fellow cherrycrotch Tilda Swinton - and later in the sci-fi/OAP crossover Space Cowboys. But his most tremendous outing was when he pipped Pierce Brosnan by a freckled nose with the standout performance as the melanoma-wary megalomanic Gustav Graves whose dastardly scheme for world domination was predictably foiled by the unctuous normhair James Bond in Die Another Day. Stephens, with his long loping stride, fondness for sugar cubes and impressive lineage, is still throwing up quality performances today, but the time will come surely where he is put out to stud and left to create his own enduring legacy of lil' acting Red Rums/Yums.

Archy Marshall
Cherubic redtop whippersnapper Archy Marshall aka Zoo Kid is a Lahndahn scallywag who resembles Tilda Swinton after raiding her grandad's wardrobe with the snarl and swagger of a hungover Joe Jackson and a quiff to make La Roux fire off a cease and desist order. And he's only sixteen which makes him some sort of parallel universe Justin Bieber - a Justin Gingber if you will, who, instead of getting chased by scores of prepubescent, screeching, tweentards, while singing sugary pop earaches, chooses to stand in a room alone with a weird old woman and a dog, crooning in an affected, gruff, growl about a doomed romance with, presumably, some normhaired bint. Y'see, gings do fatalist misanthropy better than anyone else - and sixteen-year-old redballs here has a lot better grip on life's gloomy ability to grind you into the ground than the squarehaired Bieber and his cheery barfpool of wonderment. This Kid's all right.
