What is Rupert Penry Jones' Height?

British actor Rupert Penry-Jones, standing at an exact 6ft 1 (185.4 cm), has leveraged his commanding height to portray authoritative figures in television and film. His tall stature suited the sleek suits of spy Adam Carter in Spooks, where he noted the challenge of finding good fits for his 6ft 1 frame in Night and Day. This height enhanced his presence as barrister Clive Reader in Silk, detective DI Joseph Chandler in Whitechapel, and vampire hunter Mr. Quinlan in The Strain.

• Key films: Match Point, Persuasion, Charlotte Gray, Hilary and Jackie

Son of actors Peter Penry-Jones and Angela Thorne, his 6ft 1 build has been central to his sophisticated on-screen image.
