I've always though he's at least 6ft3. Funny. Jason says on 14/Dec/08
Bumped into him getting out of a cab in Soho. Fantastic guy. I've got some photos of me standing next to him - 6'1" seems roughly about right, possibly half inch less. Anonymous says on 20/Oct/08

bill nighy's a legend! I'd say 6'1 with relative ease, maybe even 6'2. What was he like, Glenn? gladiator says on 29/Dec/07
Saw him this afternoon in south kensington london, he's alot taller than you think. I guess between 6-1 -6-3. ??? says on 28/May/07
he looked about 5'10" dead man's chest and at world's end Sara says on 2/Mar/07
Well, Bill rarely stands straight, even when walking he's slouched and bent-kneed. This belies his true height. Ingrid says on 17/Feb/07
He never looked the 6'2". I think he's definitely shrunk down with age. footballed28 says on 15/Feb/07
he gives an impression of a 6'2 male regardless of his big-time slouching...perhaps a little over 6'1 nowadays or all of 186cm Kat says on 13/Feb/07
I used to hang out with him back in the days[1975/6]when he was a member of Liverpool Hope Street theatre. We referred to him as "Billy Niggles" and he was definitely 6'2" then - might have shrunk with age? Glenn says on 13/Feb/07
Nighy is slouching alot.6-1 is correct.I would think Affleck is 6-2.I read 6-3.
[Editor Rob: I think Nighy actually 'dwarfed' the ant+dec tv presenters in Love Actually] Ed says on 11/Feb/07
Nighy is in a recent Vanity Fair picture spread where Osacr nominated Hollywood stars are photographed in different scenes from an old noir film. In Nighy's photo he's in it with Ben Affleck, as they stand around a gravesite. Anyways Affleck and Nighy are almost identical, and in fact Nighy might even have a slight edge and the pic really does not look distorted. So I'm wondering if Nighy is 6ft1 which he doesn't really look like in the photo w/Glenn, maybe he's slouching a bunch but he looks more 5ft11ish. I've always thought Affleck was a good 6ft2, and Nighy I thought the same of, if not taller, but someone here is off. Glenn, was he slouching a bit and did he seem taller than 6ft1? Also, maybe you'll meet Affleck one of these days, and give some insight in to his height, because he's always looked at least 6ft1. KingNick says on 11/Feb/07
6'1" sounds accurate I dare say maybe 6'2" even. John says on 11/Feb/07
great photo Predah says on 10/Feb/07
this guy was superb in the role of Davy Jones! Jake W. says on 10/Feb/07
Doesn't look it with Glenn. Glenn says on 10/Feb/07
I couldve sworn I posted here.bumped into him 1am in the Time Warner building. D. Ray Morton says on 10/Feb/07
Badass. Thanks for the photo.
(Didn't get to meet him, alas.) D. Ray Morton says on 26/Jan/07
This brutha OWNS. Just saw "The Vertical Hour"...looked like a 6-1er onstage next to li'l Julliane (who looked all of 5'2" or 5'3"). Going again on Sat...might get to meet him this time.
Glenn - any pics? |
