Keeley Hawes! Good call, but I'll see your Keeley and raise you Helen Baxendale. Although tbf there's dozens of blokes that are far worse than the pair of them (many already named in this thread)

...and currently playing opposite Keeley Hawes: Richard Madden (should be called Richard Wooden)

Im afraid to say Im going to have to add the wonderful Felicity Kendall to the list.
Adored her in the Good Life, but back in the 90s I was meeting with a friend in London to celebrate my 30th and she asked what I wanted to do. We then walked past a theatre which had a play with the lovely miss K starring so we bought tickets and sat down. She was so bad that we couldnt wait for the interval and our chance to escape.

I think Johnny Depp is pretty ordinary. He has been lucky to be in some half decent films and hammed it up in Pirate OTC but he’s yet to impress me.

Diane Keaton's "performance" in Hampstead is, without doubt, the single worst "performance" I have ever seen. She is truly dreadful from start to finish. She is hammy, insincere and unconvincing. She was no better in The Book Club film this year, just dire.

I think he's been terrific in this. I saw him play Romeo at The Globe about 10 years ago and he didn't strike me as a star in the making but he's been a revelation in this. I think you're missing the point if you think he's wooden, he's got PTSD (and yes, it is unlikely that he'd get a job as a protection officer, but it's not a documentary).

Mind you, there have been some strange choices for bad actors: Jim Carrey, Keeley Hawes and, bizarrely, Daniel Craig strike me as choices of people who don't watch too many films.

Personally, I think the worst actor I've seen on TV is the bloke who played the Asian shopkeeper (Dev?) on Corrie. I wasn't a dedicated watcher of the programme but when I did see it, he always struck me as someone who'd wandered onto the set. Mind you, there are some dreadful actors on some of the kids programmes I used to watch when the children were young, I've drawn a blank over their performances.

I'm meeting him and his wife for the first time on the 28th; I'll be sure to pass on your sentiments! Anything you'd like me to say to his missus about her acting abilities while I'm on the case?

The nadir of TV viewing was this tool rummaging around a bowl of his own shite on some celeb detox reality TV show a few years back.

Catpunchingly epic bell end.

Jean Claude Van Damme and Steven Seagal, I cannot watch films that either star in.

The woman who 'plays' Fizz in Corrie is reaching new depths with her gurning and dreadful whining diction

Al Pacino. He confuses shouting with acting.

There, I've said it.
