Robert Carlyle – 60, Glasgow

Robert Carlyle dropped out of school when he was only 16 years old and worked as a decorator and painter for his father. He eventually went back to studying at Glasgow’s Cardonald College, and he ultimately grew a passion for acting when he reached his 20s.

His hard work paid off by the late ’90s because he took home a BAFTA for his performance in the movie called The Full Monty. In more recent times, you might recognize Carlyle for starring in Once Upon a Time. Since 2020, he has appeared in Cobra.
