@players
How confident are we with Hamish's list? Should we use a question to ask if the person is on H's list?

I will guess Richard Burton
Richard Burton was nominated for Best Actor multiple times (without winning) so, no.
Ah yes, forgot about that. James Mason too.

How many of us have free guesses left?
Everyone but Jece (only legit guess so far).
Ah, if you're not counting my Oscar-forgetting Richard Burton guess, I will guess Peter Cushing. Can't ignore Grand Moff Tarkin now, can we?

I just went through the entire list of nominees for best supporting actor and clicked every name that looked familiar. No Brits that died between 1950 and 2000, so I guess I am out.

I didn't say I checked them all, I checked all that looked familiar. So my conclusion is I don't know the guy.

Fair enough. When I looked it up the first year for supporting actor is 1936. The first one I looked at was Basil Rathbone. Fits the bill.
