Jeremy was one of the finest actors we ever had.

He lived it and I think it killed him.

Royal Shakespeare.

Both fine actors.
Both the definitive portrayal of the detective they are best known for.
Both were in various Shakespeare plays in the theatre.

David Suchet or Jeremy Brett.

I once had an encounter with the latter, he was being an obnoxious arrogant twat in a bar in clapham junction, so we went up behind him and said “it’s you isn’t it. No don’t tell me. I just love you etc etc” and when he turned round, grabbed the woman next to him and said she was our favorite teacher. He wasn’t amused! 

Oh, you little minx!!!

I love, love, love David Suchet. He wins my vote

Ruined my opinion of him as an actor. They say don’t meet your heroes.
