No way 5ft8 DannyDooBoy says on 2/Oct/08
He IS 5'8"... He is a family friend. I am 6' and Ross stands shorter than me. He often wears Army boots adding 1 & 1/2" to his height.
Thanks ;o)

Steve McFadden is probably at least 5ft8. little one says on 5/Sep/08
brushed past Steve Mcfadden (Ross Kemp's screen brother in Eastenders) outside a veg shop in Muswell Hill. Seemed around 5'8-9. James says on 25/Aug/08
This guy can fluctaute in pics next to 5ft10 Nigel Harman he looks at least an inch taller. But for the most part he looks 5ft10.75. He is defnintly a weak 5ft11. daii says on 31/May/08
when he used to walk through the door of the Vic in eastenders he seemed pretty big, but seeing him on other things id give him a 5'10.5 David says on 20/Apr/08
I've just seen Ross Kemp with Fiona Bruce on the Baftas. She's 5ft 9 apparently, and she towered a good few inches above him, so even allowing for heels, I doubt if he's more than 5'8''. He wasn't squatting or crouching as far as I could tell. Nigel says on 5/Apr/08
My brother met him in Brighton and was surprised at how short he was. He reckoned 5'8''.

met him , im 5'8 my freind is 5'10 and he was a little bit taller than my friend ( got them to stand straight up and salute for the pic as my freind is a infantryman on leave from Iraq and he loved Ultimate Force, Kemp thought we were mad at first but soon as we mentioned my mate was a soldier he willingly obliged. SUCH a nice guy btw, he was out buying newspapers and was wearing Trainers, such a lovelly , looked different facially in real life. Id say a touch under 5'11 as my freind is bang on 5'10 ( measured for the army ) and he was DEFINETLY taller than my freind. Id say 5'10 and a half or 5'10 and 3/4 . Anonymous says on 3/Aug/07
I would put him at 178cm 5"10. He never looks any taller. Missy says on 17/Apr/07
In Ultimate Force he seems tiny! Is he really 5'11"? I would have had him down for 5'9", tops Matt says on 11/Jan/07
Other thing to consider in regards to Eastenders is that half the time, Kemp was standing behind the bar. Wouldn't surprise me if it had a slightly raised floor level, like many bars and pubs do. LA Liver says on 10/Jan/07
He's taler than me, but not by much.
Met him while wearing shoes with a 1" heel & I'm 5'8.5"
Very nice bloke tho! Mr Mayfair says on 10/Jan/07
He is a big guy, larger than he appears on the screen and near enough six foot, taller than me and much taller than when we were at school.
Of course he got beaten up by his missus, gents don't fight back against women - at least not when their our size! Zack says on 26/Sep/06
I've met him on several occasions and would say a max of 5'8" and that is being generous! Even that Gianni character is small and he towered over Kemp. Rastus says on 12/Sep/06
Come on guys, I'm aware this looks like a one man campaign now, but I caught the Extras episode again last week. All the way through he looks 5'9" but in the last one Gervais is nearer the camera and they look the same height - 5'8". Even in his army boots Ross Kemp couldn't reach 5'11". Rastus says on 31/Jul/06
Kramer, an SAS man could kick my ass, but Ross Kemp couldn't. Did you read in the papers that he got beaten up by his wife?! He's 5'9" tops, no doubt about it. kramer says on 18/Apr/06
actually SAS men are never tall. they need to get into spmall places... but they would still kick your ass! TheMan says on 4/Jan/06
Well steve mcfandons (Phil) is not that tall anyway he's got to be what 5,6-7 max. Even Billie was taller than him in one episode and he's tiny. But i still think kemps no shorter than 5,10 but anythings possible. Rastus says on 4/Jan/06
Good points on Kemp and Fairbrass. Ross Kemp looks big when he's standing next to Steve McFadden (5'7") and Barbra Windsor (4'11"), for goodness sake. And Gareth, if you take a closer look you'll see that when he was in the SAS he was the smallest, fattest SAS man since Lewis Collins invented them to fight in the Falklands. Scotty Boy says on 3/Jan/06
I would give him 5'10 max i remember when craig fairbrass who is 6'3 was in eastenders he dwarfed him by at least 5 inches. Some actors get away with looking tall until a genuinely tall actor appears next to them. Scotty boy says on 3/Jan/06
Totally agree this guy is nowhere near 5'11 he is about 5'9. I remember when Martin Kemp was in eastenders he looked 2 to 3 inches taller than him and he is only around 6 foot himself. I think a few of the Eastenders cast are listed higher than they actually are Billy Murray who plays Johnny Allen in particular is listed at 5'10.I would give him about 5'8 max.
[Editor Rob: the BBC actually list Ross Kemp as 6ft. Here he is 183cm] Luis_Garcia says on 2/Jan/06
I watched that episode of Extras again last night, I think you've got Kemp spot on. Jones definitely towered him in the scene when he threatens him, unless they exaggerated it to look Kemp like a kid
[Editor Rob: Kemp always looked big on EastEnders because of his brother who was about 3 inches shorter. I used to think he came across as big until Ultimate Force, where genuine 6ft 2 guys made him look average] The only Gareth in the village says on 1/Jan/06
No way. Kempo is 6' plus. THe man's a giant, he was in the SAS for heaven sake.
[Editor Rob: Vinnie Jones had this guy by several inches in extras...kemp wasn't that bigger than Gervais as I'm sure you've seen that show...] Rastus says on 8/Dec/05
Yeah. Ross Kemp is 5'9" max and could be nearer 5'8". Check him out in the Spartacus TV movie next to 6'4" Goran from ER, even with funny camera angles. Like Russell Crowe, Kemp is a 'hardman' so has to be seen as big and bulky, rather than small and stocky. 5'9" max. |
