How tall is Nigel Hawthorne

Nigel Hawthorne's Height

5ft 11 ¾ (182.2 cm)

English Actor best remembered for films like Amistad, The Madness of King George and Demolition Man. In his autobiography 'Straight Face' I read his comment on his stature as a young man, saying: "I proudly measured my height on the wall and clocked Six foot exactly if I stood very straight and held my breath."

Rob,any chance of a page for the main character in yes minister with Nigel,Paul Eddington ? Have seen descriptions of 186 for him which is way off,looks 180 or 181 if you're being generous.
Editor Rob
Jenny's still watching old Robin Hood episodes and I think Eddington pops up quite regularly in different roles. Yeah, he ain't over 6ft from what I've seen

Editor Rob
Busting a gut earlier in the day he could have got that 6ft mark...

looks atleast 6'0 in Madness of King George III, opposite 6'4" Everett, he could have been touching 6'1", there wasn't that much between them.

Yes, I met him several times. I only noticed his height because he was exactly as tall as me, and I am 6'. I put between 6' and 6'1" on him because my heel was maybe 1/2" higher than his.
