> Are you just basing this on the resemblance, or do you have a more authoritative cite? Because the scene is very dark, very brief, and although I grant there’s a resemblance, I don’t think the image (at least as I see it on my computer screen) is good enough to say that it is definitely Kinnear. No actors are listed in the show’s credits, but the show is not listed on Kinnear’s [IMDb page](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1239499/?ref_=nv_sr_1), which I would expect if it really were him.

It’s much clearer in broadcast quality - that happens to appear to be the best version available online.
