he is just about 182.5 or 183 cm not a flat out 182cm guy.
steven says on 20/Jan/12
pushing 5'10.5 in both picture. after a better posture he did be 5'11 but still had to shave away 1/4 so he is like 5'10.75 a 180cm guy.
USYD says on 18/Jan/12
182cm
Josh B says on 10/Jan/12
@Rampage, although i agree he's closer to 180cm than 182cm, i don't see any evidence of him wearing lifts. And it's easy to see a 180cm as 182cm on screen with camera angles so don't be so harsh on carnegie.

Yeah well you thought wrong...
He's 5ft11 on the dot and wears
lifts...
carnegie says on 11/Dec/11
always thought that he was 6ft
Bakura says on 2/Dec/11
5'11 flat is too low. Doesn't look anything under 5'11.5" in either picture.

I think the higher estimates are coming from the second picture, fair enough. But take note, in the second picture, he has has his arm over rob and slightly pushing him down whilest elevating himself and still he looks about 5'11.

In the first one, he has a footwear advantage and despite his loose posture, he would struggle to surpass 5'11 there. Both rob and jenny reach about 2.75 inches above his eyeline. He would not be above 5'10.5 there.

He has the largest head of any man.

Accurate listing Rob finally a legit 182-183cm guy on this site that is not inflated to 185cm.
LAN Jiao says on 31/Oct/11
5'11 here. maybe 5-11.5 in real.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 28/Oct/11
I don't see him over 180cm(5"11) in these pics...
johno says on 14/Oct/11
Look at this again but with closer inspection. I do not know in which picture he had 0.25 inch more footwear then yours but i assume its the first one.

I'm not convinced barrowmans head is any longer then robs. I believe rob's is around 9.5 inches. In the first picture, the tip of robs head is comfortably 1 inch above barrowmans eyebrows thus taking barrowmans sneaker advantage into account, he looks 2.3 - 2.7 taller then rob in that one, sorry about the odd fractions. He looks about 5'10.5 - 5.10.75 in there.

In the second, barrowman has gained height. I don't know how but he looks 5'11 there. His height must be around them parameters.

Barrowman 5'10.75 - 5'11

I`d say 6-0 too.Excellent actor also.This years Torchwood on stars was very good.What do you think?
toshisback says on 25/Sep/11
Specs for his stunt doubles & standins for television productions list a height of 6ft even. Those stats need to be accurate as film crews use the standins for setting up the lighting, blocking the scene(s), and for camera focus checks.
James says on 14/Sep/11
he looks 182cm in both pics
Alex says on 11/Aug/11
This guy has a long forehead and his eye level looks to be 5-5.25 inches from his head. With that he looks 6'0 I'd say.
marshall says on 7/Jul/11
why do you do this, he is 6 foot, not 5ft 11. 75.
Mockingjay55 says on 4/Jul/11
I'd say 5'11" is about right, even though 6 ft wouldn't be impossible.
hugewhofan says on 3/Jul/11
I have always thought he was around David Tennants height, 6 ft 1 in.
James says on 21/Jun/11
181cm is not impossible
James says on 16/Jun/11
yeah 5'11 flat is too low. I think he is close to 6ft
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 6/Jun/11
I think 5ft11 flat is closer
Matt says on 30/May/11
his eyelevel is 5ft 6.5 making him atleast 5ft 11.
Lenad is sexy says on 2/May/11
Looks 5ft11ish to me
James says on 14/Apr/11
Maybe 5'11.25 (181cm)?
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 10/Apr/11
I agree with Observant
Observant says on 31/Mar/11
I'm seeing 5'11 flat here
SAK says on 23/Feb/11
He looks 6ft/183cm in the photo next to Rob. But he could be 5ft11.5/182cm.

I would say 183cm morning and 182cm in evening.
James says on 14/Feb/11
not quite 6foot
filmfan says on 26/Dec/10

James says on 9/Nov/10
Always looks tall on TV. About Danny Dyers height a weak 6'0.
