Ben cannot sing and his dancing is usually out of time when I've seen him, but each to their own. I think he'd be quite poor in that role. Danny in Grease or some other lightweight role maybe.
Denis Lawson is a very lightweight Georges .. particularly up agains Quast's (such a shame he didn't renew). Lacks gravitas and dignity. It needs more of a heavy weight performer to do it justice. John couldn't carry off Albin..too camp, too hammy in his acting, he'd never manage the pathos you would get cheese acting like in Torchwood..plus it would be such a cliche. Let's have John as the camp aging queen...yawn!
