Hooked on Netflix's Bodyguard? Here's Why the Cast Looks So Familiar

You may have seen Hawes in Spooks, Tipping the Velvet or Ashes to Ashes. More recently, she's played Gemma Webster in BBC series The Missing, Lindsay Denton in Line of Duty, and matriarch Louisa in The Durrells. Long story short: She's all over British TV.

Playing Robb Stark in Game of Thrones kicked Scottish heartthrob Madden's career into high gear, and since then, he's portrayed Prince Kit in Disney's live-action Cinderella, sexy gardener Mellors in Lady Chatterley's Lover, and DJ Leo in the Netflix movie Ibiza.

You'll recognize McKee from Notting Hill and Phantom Thread, but the BAFTA-winner is better known for TV, including Our Friends in the North, Brass Eye, The Borgias, Missing, Hebburn, and the first season of Line of Duty.

Rundle was doing double-duty as David Budd's estranged wife on Bodyguard and Alice Kett on Sky One's Jamestown. She was previously seen on Peaky Blinders as Ada Shelby, The Bletchley Circle, and the Showtime comedy Episodes.

One of Franklin's most memorable roles was buzzword-obsessed Stewart Pearson in The Thick of It but you might also remember him from Cucumber,Banana, Happy Valley, Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell, or Decline and Fall.

If you recognize Toussaint-White, chances are good that it's from her recent role as Angie Bailey in Emmerdale or as nurse Syd Chambers in Eastendersin 2009. She's also appeared in Casualty, The Bill, Holby City, and Doctor Who.

She's Julia Montague's PR adviser in Bodyguard, but you might have also spotted Hyam in Jekyll and Hyde, Peaky Blinders, or 2016 World War II comedy-drama Their Finest, as one of the stars of the propaganda film-within-the-film.

Bowman has starred in Versailles, Musketeers, Doctors, and the 2015 film Sunset Song, among others.

You can't say Stokoe doesn't have range: he played Alex in Misfits, Captain Marcheaux in The Musketeers, and like his Bodyguard co-star Sophie Rundle, is now starring in Jamestown, where he portrays blacksmith James Read.

A comic actress who cut her teeth on The Brittas Empire and Green Wing, Haywood is equally convincing in dramatic roles, including Harriet in Prisoners' Wives and Detective Superintendent Julie Dodson in Scott and Bailey.

Gleaves is best known as DS Andy Roper in Scott and Bailey, but he briefly appeared in the Cold Feet reboot and has popped up in most crime dramas, from The Inspector Lynley Mysteries to Vera.
