    This was a great interview. I love his accent! Wish he was going to use it on The Office.

    I luurve this guy. I do remember him in Abfab. But his career is so varied. He was in the new Prom Night that sucked but then was in RockenRolla with Gerard Butler witch rocked. He is a fine man.

    Okay, I am lame and only watched the first season, and that was a long time ago... he is the money dude, right? The guy who handled all the finances, and managed to not get arrested at the end of the first season?

    Deejays under the name "Big Driis the Londoner" (he's musical too!)


    Height: 6' 2" (1.88 m) *sigh*


    Elba hangs out with rappers such as Diddy and Ludacris and spends much of his time in Atlanta - where he owns a house and lives close to his former wife and daughter.

    ATL here I come!


    Has anyone mentioned SOMETIMES IN APRIL. It's a must see, forget about HOTEL RWANDA.

    I love how the caption under his picture reads:

    "Idris Elba was born in London; his mother is originally from Ghana, his father from Sierra Leone."


    ... so if you were wondering how a guy that looks like this sounds like that, well, there you go...

    I've been permanently turned off to The Wire since some cops locked me in the backseat of their police car and made me watch an entire episode with them while I was waiting for them to write up a police report after my car got vandalized three years ago. True story.

    @hatepaperdoll: Were they parked on a disused railway line? Did they hurl the bottles on police station's roof? Did either of them vomit on the street? Was one of them asking the other who would they do if they were gay? Were they generally disheartened/unwhole?


    Man I love that show.

    And I am only halfway through the third season of The Wire, so I had no idea he died on the show later on. Thanks a lot, Terry Gross. You spoiler.

    @J.D.Regent: No! But I am trying to get through Lost so I can catch up and watch with Rosasparks.


    However, iTunes CRASHED my goddamn computer so now I can't watch anything.


    Is it very violent? I don't like hardcore violence, like, I can't watch The Sopranos.
