It's off-topic, but this is John Thaw in the first episode of The Sweeney, pointing a gun at Brian Blessed: https://www.anorakzone.com/sweeney/ringer.jpg
That's an example of "famous people together that you would have expected to be together" because Brian Blessed was in everything.
But how old was John Thaw in that episode? How old?
33! People aged faster back then.

He'd have actually been 32.

Here's Busoni glowering defiantly from the shadows in another really big coat.

iirc Thaw was a catastrophic alcoholic, which won't have helped matters

I learn that he was 44 when he started playing Inspector Morse:https://archivetvmusings.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/jericho-03.jpg
That's actually younger than me. As you point out he was a raging alcoholic with depressive tendencies. He died age 60 in 2002, outliving his dad by only five years:https://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/morse-more-sad-more-angry-than-you-ever-knew-20041111-gdk382.html
And hey, an actual on-topic picture, from the late 1960s:https://preview.redd.it/x3eo8ykfa1q81.jpg?width=640&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=12043fb95fcbf3e2a54bb11e595262e6fe64b33b
Apparently Redcap took over the slot vacated by The Avengers, thus the photoshoot. Whichever casting person unearthed Diana Rigg deserved a raise:https://preview.redd.it/hzwc2xkfa1q81.jpg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=de2b688ae3a03c842d3383a26f27fbf9973a715f

(xp) He's 24 in that photo. Some people are just older looking than their years, plus he was prematurely grey, which didn't help.
