THE Office star Mackenzie Crook enjoyed a proud dad moment as he walked the red carpet with his rarely-seen look-a-like son.
The TV actor, who starred as Gareth Keenan in Ricky Gervais’ The Office from 2001, donned a baseball cap and blue shirt as he attended the UK premiere of Jeanne du Barry at The Curzon Mayfair.
Two-time BAFTA nominee Mackenzie, 52, wrapped up in a dark jacket which matched his dark trousers, finishing off his smart casual look with a pair of trainers.
The Game Of Thrones star was joined by son Jude, 21, who towered over him.
He also donned trendy sneakers and an oversized jacket, pairing them with a green shirt.
Mackenzie is dad to Jude and daughter Scout, who he shares with wife Lindsay.
The pair married in 2001.
Meanwhile, Jeanne Du Barry is actor Johnny Depp’s first feature film since his defamation case with ex wife Amber Heard.
Screen king
In 1998, Mackenzie landed his first role in the Channel 4 sketch show Barking.
He also hosted the ITV One show Comedy Café as the character Charlie Cheese as well as starring in Hollywood movie Pirates of the Caribbean.
Most recently, he played Worzel Gummidge in the BBC reboot of the classic children’s show.
Mackenzie has amassed quite a fortune during his time in the spotlight, with an estimated net worth of £3million.
Fresh material
Last year, Mackenzie told of his plans to pen a new drama after he saw success rebooting Worzel Gummidge for the BBC as well as with TV show Detectorists.
He confessed he had written a new script based on the 18th-century robber and killer.
Mackenzie told me: “I’d love to tell the real story of a man whose reputation has been somewhat romanticised.
“The truth is, Dick Turpin was a vicious robber and a drama about him would give me the chance to set the record straight.”
Turpin, who was hanged in 1739, is famed for exploits including riding his horse Black Bess from London to York in a single night, so will offer plenty of fodder for the script.
