Adrian Dunbar

Adrian Dunbar (born 1 August, 1958), is an Irish actor best known for his television work. Dunbar also co-wrote and starred in the award-winning 1991 film, Hear My Song.

Born and brought up in Enniskillen, County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland, the eldest of 7 siblings in a Roman Catholic family, Dunbar was educated by the Irish Christian Brothers before being trained at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London, and, in 1986, he married the Australian actress Anna Nygh.

He has appeared in such notable films as My Left Foot and The Crying Game. On television, he starred in the first episode of Cracker, as well as on BBC series such as Tough Love and Kidnapped, usually playing a Celt of some sort.

Dunbar was also cast as Bail Organa for Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace and appeared in costume in publicity stills, but his scene was cut, and the character was re-cast with Jimmy Smits for later episodes.
