Richard Armitage became my favorite actor ever when I saw him in North and South which has become my favorite drama ever, surpassing my previous favorite, the period drama, Pride and Prejudice.

Since then I have scrounged to find everything I can that he has been in, and while some of the programs have only been average, his performances have always been good, and where the program and script allows, he has been excellent.

I find him mesmerizing to watch and listen to, he has wonderful eyes and a wonderful voice, and he has a less is more acting style which really appeals to me. He seems to inhabit his characters and you don't feel he is acting.

Programs I would recommend are the BBC's North and South, the final two episodes of The Vicar of Dibley, Between the Sheets, Sparkhouse, The Impressionists and see him at his most vile in the BBC's 2006 version of Robin Hood.
