Rob, just saw that Joss passed away a few days ago...


He definitely put on a lot of weight in later years but I can believe he peaked at 6ft

Noticeably below it in later years as you can see with Cumberbatch Click Here

Ackland looked under six feet in Who Is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe? 6’0” Jean-Pierre Cassel was noticeably taller than Ackland by at least half an inch in that film. However, Ackland had close to two inches on Christopher Lambert in The Sicilian, and Lambert could have peaked at 5’10.5”, so I really could not contest Ackland’s 6’0” listing, especially for his peak. Currently aged 95, Ackland may well be around 5’9” nowadays.

Id say decent enough six foot peak. In white mischief age 59 he looked no less than 182 with Charles Dance. Could have been 5ft11.75, but i think this six foot listing is still fair.

Rob, how tall would you say Jean-Pierre Cassel was?

I thought Ackland and Cassel were the same height in Who is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe?. I’d go with 6’0” for both.
Editor Rob
both could be around same range, maybe weaker 6ft range

Not true. In the Persuaders I think he looked exactly 1 inch shorter than Moore.

Old episode of The Persuaders he looked almost identical in height to Roger Moore.

Rob, it has to be said that he looks nowhere near this today, especially in the film Flawless.
