I think it's highly unlikely he's 5'8". In the recent BBC play 'Enid' he played alongside Helena Bonham Carter and was barely taller than her. She's listed as 5' 2". She looked like she might be in heels of no more than 2in so I would say he's barely over 5' 5", though he's 62 now so possibly was around 5' 6" at his peak.
