Rob, could he be closer to 6ft2 today?
6ft3 at his peak is still fair though.....

Editor RobGiven his age, he might have shrunk towards that. Not really looked at him for a good while now.

I've met Jimmy a few times through work.. he's not as tall as you'd like to think.. over 6ft yes.. but not 6ft 3.. i'd give him 6ft 1.5 max.

‘Morons From Outer Space’ sounds so FUNNY! I’m in no doubt that I’m never going to come across any of these characters though, so laugh at the prospect I will feel free….!
😂😋😂
Six three.

No way is or was Nail 6'3''. I have to agree with the other comments who have him somewhere in the 2 range. I would have him somewhere around 188.5/189.5

6'3 is probably a peak height and recent years really look 6'2 1/2.

I didn't think he was tall either until I saw the video for "Ain't no doubt"

Look pretty much like 6'2.5 maybe 6'2.75" really not legit 6'3.

I can believe 6'3" for Jimmy. Big powerful man. He played a good part in Minder many years ago.

Yeah a tall guy. When he first appeared as Oz was very thick set but then lost loads of weight due to packing up drinking and healthy living I recall. Looked half the man he was.

Remember Crocodile Shoes being on one of the old Now albums from like 1995 or something. Thought he looks a right miserable t**t back then and still looks it. Hard man. Didn't realize he was tall either! Probably quite intimidating in person with his height and scowl!

Think this was his peak height. Must be shorter today. Loved Auf Wierdersehen. 'Barry' just used to crack me up!

I think he is a strong 6'3. I don't see him dropping below it. He was never far off Pat Roach's height in Auf Wiedersehn Pet. Maybe an inch or ao less than Pat. I always thought Roach was closer to 6'5 than 6'4.
