James Callis as Dr. Gaius Baltar from the T.V. series "Battle Star Galactica"
Oddly enough, he has also played “Merlin” in “Merlin & the Book of Beasts” which incidentally I DO NOT recommend, Merlin fans. 
Oddly enough again, he has also played a man named Dr. Gaius Baltar in “Battle Star Galactica” which I am a fan of and DO recommend esp. if you love Sci-fi.
