Glenn McCrory was in Casualty, although that's not a film. Think he was also in OUR FRIENDS IN THE NORTH.

This trailer is waaaay better. I don't think they'll be using it in cinemas (you'll see why when you see it), but it was shown at Cannes and Sundance (I think):

Up and Under was the film with Adam Fogerty in it. Neil Morrissey and Samantha Janus were in it as well. It was OK I suppose. Fogerty played professional rugby league as well.

Just want to add that although Stretch seems a bit of a prick, he was indeed good in Dead Man's Shoes. Oh and I'll agree with the others, Irreversible is a fantastic film.
