Just watched Triggermen, 2002. Dunbar looked four or five inches shorter than Neil Morrissey, so 5’10” at best from me.

Telling Inspector Morse that the latest victim cannot possibly be a suicide because the terminally ill man wouldn't have had the strength to pick up a gun and then adding as his explanation for not coming forward before at the inquest, "Sorry! I was on holiday!" isn't quite going to cut the mustard for perfectionist Morse! 🀭😀

He was salmon fishing! 🎏🎣..πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Adrian gets 5ft11.

I saw Adrian in the first ever 'Cracker' the other night. Entitled 'The Mad Woman in the Attic', Adrian plays a man with a total memory black-out, after witnessing the brutal murder of a young girl.

Adrian doesn't even remember his name. By what Fitz can gather, the stranger has too much good in him to be guilty and actually takes him into his home for a while, his wife having recently left him because of his gambling, taking their sweet little daughter, Katie, and leaving Fitz their son - complete with his stinking feet!

πŸ˜·πŸ‘£...πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I can't go lower than 5ft11.25, judging from what I saw of him in this, not forgetting the brilliant film, 'The Crying Game', wherein he plays an evil, ruthless swine.

⭐ Adrian also starred in 'A Touch of Frost' and in a very moving episode of 'Inspector Morse'.

The fellow I was talking about last June, Andrew Dunbar, has tragically passed on. He was a 'Game of Thrones' actor and starred in quite a few films too. He was in his 30s and 6ft. Do you think this actor could have a page please, Rob?

I always thought Adrian was taller than 5ft11. He looked quite tall in 'The Crying Game', 'Inspector Morse' and 'A Touch of Frost', but compared to David Jason, he would look tall!

I just thought that Adrian had a son! I'm watching the beginning of 'Leprechaun: Origins' and I came across an Irish actor called Andrew Dunbar. I saw a tall, dark-haired guy, and thought he might be Adrian's son, but it turned out that Andrew is fair-haired (highlights?) and 6ft tall. But then, Adrian has fair eyebrows, so it was still a possibility. Andrew turned out to be 6ft (I checked on Google!), but can't be Adrian's son because he has only one child - a daughter, Madeleine.

Adrian was fantastic but brutal in 'The Crying Game', and played a ruthless doctor in favour of euthenasia in 'Inspector Morse'. I always saw him as positively tall - 6ft+ - but 5ft11 isn't that far off, so that is what he gets.

He's probably pushing 180.5 cm

That's not 6 inches it's about 4.5 I'd say.

⭐Correction Time!⭐
That should be 'Cracker', not flippin' 'Taggart'!
Sorry!

Great to see the arrival of Adrian Dunbar!
He gave an explosive performance in 'The Crying Game', with his brutal and destructive IRA hoodlum character, but played a thoroughly likeable role as an amnesiac ex-monk, fresh out of the monastery, who's ended up that way through the shock of witnessing a brutal murder, in the first ever episode of 'Taggart'. Adrian was also in the final 'A Touch of Frost' as a nasty piece of work, plus an episode of 'Inspector Morse', as a GP who openly supports euthanasia. So he was included in my 3 favourite police/detective dramas, in fact!
I've therefore had plenty of opportunities to take in his height and when I heard he was going to be getting his own page on celebheights, I thought, "he must be about 5ft11 and a bit!"
I'm quite pleased I'm only a fraction out! A few months ago, when I first started visiting this website, I would have guessed 6ft, but now that I know about all the bungling going on, I've come to realise that 5ft11 is TALL, and those I've met were probably less! I will therefore agree with 5ft11 for Adrian, who is an excellent addition to the No.1 celebrity website, celebheights!
