He does do thoughtful and intense parts well, but in a sort of
withdrawn, introspective way. But he's an excellent actor, so
maybe he can do it in a brash and direct way as well.

The guy who played the lead in that satirical 'life of
Jeffrey Archer' play a few months ago - and the main character
in 'Band Of Brothers' - I think he'd make a good Straker. Can
do an American accent well, too.
