"[Editor Rob: hmm...maybe Not even 3 inches rather than a good 4 ;) you were near the mark with devon though: Now that's a Proper solid 6 inch difference...]"

I am impressed how good Robs estimates are sometimes.

Definitely 6 feet tall here. Probably 5'11.75 without. Still 6 feet tall basically.
Harry says on 19/Sep/09
he looks 6'0 here Rob
James says on 3/Sep/09
close to 6ft
Hugh 191cm says on 19/Aug/09
5ft11-6ft in the picture with Rob and Jenny but I'd say when standing straight hes 6ft minimum. I used to think he was 6ft1-2.
Kirsty says on 27/Jul/09
Wow I really like him and I want to grow to that height now also I have noticed he is exactly the same height as James May
Jessica says on 4/Jul/09
I've been reading all these posts about height, and I want to add that Keeley is 5'10" ( she said it in an interview), and she always has on heels in A2A, which puts her around 6'0 -6'1" in her heels. Phil is taller than her in all episodes, although this could be attributed to camera angles. Personally, I think 6'0 is about right.
Genny says on 19/Jun/09
After having seen a photo of someone of 6ft at the same event who says that he was taller than her, it's puzzling. A friend over six feet tall also says that Phil G was taller than him.PG is hunched over a bit in this photo. Probably accounts for the 5ft 11.
Drabble says on 19/Jun/09
Even though he he leaning forward slightly, Phil G. looks to have a good four inches over Rob and the lovely Jenny. 6ft looks right.

[Editor Rob: hmm...maybe Not even 3 inches rather than a good 4 ;)

you were near the mark with devon though: Now that's a Proper solid 6 inch difference...]

i dont get this

jenny is listed as 5'8.25 (thought she was 5'8.5 before), has 1/4" less footwear than you but still looks taller than you??

[Editor Rob: just think of us both same height...]
rob89 says on 17/Jun/09
Looks 5'11 to me
filmfan says on 17/Jun/09
Looks taller than this on Ashes to Ashes. At least 6ft. Maybe it's a small cast.
Joe says on 16/Jun/09
he does look 6'0 here. Rob, how tall do you think he is?
J.Lee says on 15/Jun/09
U look taller than jenny in this photo. we always thought u were half inch shorter than her rob. if u are 5 8.25 somedays, does that mean that you and jenny are exact same height? did she shrink half inch? u said she was 5 8.5

[Editor Rob: she did have 1/4 inch less sneakers that event as I mentioned. When you measure each other 100 times you do get a good sense of the height you are ;) which is usually pretty close.]
Lmeister says on 15/Jun/09
You both look taller than John Simm next to Philip ;)
Lozzer says on 15/Jun/09
I would have said 5'11"
Haze says on 15/Jun/09
easily seems his listed height.
miko says on 15/Jun/09
I'm not quite sure if he's that tall. He might be a little shorter than listed.
G-MANN says on 21/Feb/08
"In life on mars he looks really tall."

Or rather it's just that John Simm is bit short.
Genny says on 20/Feb/08
Have just checked your list and yes, Keeley Hawes is 5 ft 8. So with 2 inch heels on she's 5ft 10. She looks more than 2 inches shorter than Philip Glenister even though he's wearing heeled boots.

[Editor Rob: they look a few inches apart, but he is wearing cowboy shoe, decent size I think. In previous episode of ashes to ashes I think there was a closeup of it.]
Genny says on 20/Feb/08
He does, look taller than 6ft...How tall is Keeley Hawes..plus she wears high heels. I reckon she's 5 7 or 5 8 without heels ?
Anonymous says on 7/Feb/08
There is no way Simm is 5'10.He is the shortest looking 5'10 ive ever seen!.Closer to 5'8.5 if you ask me.
Al capone says on 14/Feb/07
in some scenes in life on mars, he looks 3.5 in taller then john simm(5ft10) sometimes a solid 2 to 2.5 in taller. hes either 6ft-6ft1.5.Rob, why dont you list him 6ft0.75?

[Editor Rob: I think the 6ft was from agency, but yes, he could be more 184, and simm possibly more 177...I think on life he actually wears a slightly larger heel if I'm not mistaken]
Joe says on 7/Jul/06
I'd say 6'0 exactly.
anono says on 6/Jul/06
editor, how tall is robert glenister?seems shorter then his brother philip.

[Editor Rob: yeah, shorter...could be 5ft 10]
anonoymous says on 24/Jun/06
Are u going to add a height page for his brother, Robert glenister?
anon says on 23/Jun/06
Seems to have 3 inches on john simm(5 10)6"1?
edward j. leavy says on 25/Apr/06

Carole says on 8/Apr/06
