ROLES IN FILMS AND TV SERIES INCLUDING THE FULL MONTY, THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH, ONCE UPON A TIME AND COBRA (pictured) have made the Scottish actor one of the most recognisable stars on screen. One of his most iconic parts is that of Begbie, which he played in 1996 Danny Boyle film Trainspotting and its 2017 sequel. Carlyle is now set to reprise the incendiary role once more in The Blade Artist, a television adaptation of Trainspotting author Irvine Welsh’s novel of the same name. The story picks up 20 years after that first film, at a time when Begbie – now Jim Francis – has a seemingly perfect life living in California. But when he returns to Scotland for the funeral of a son he hardly knew, he is forced to confront his dark past on the streets of Edinburgh.

For her latest role, she took the lead in Channel 5’s four-part thriller Witness No 3 in which she plays Jodie, a single mum and a hairdresser who, while at work, momentarily sees two men walking on the other side of the road. When it emerges she has seen a killer and his victim moments before a murder, she becomes the key witness that police need to put a local gang leader behind bars – until a terrifying campaign of intimidation attempts to silence her.
