No matter that Mr. Rochester was supposed to be on the ugly side of average and Timothy Dalton is drop-dead gorgeous, he's still my favorite Rochester. He's got the passion and desperation. And he looks really good in 19th century costume.
shareWhy did you not include other screen Rochesters such as Nathaniel Parker, Colin Clive, Rafe Spall, Charlton Heston and Kevin McCarthy??????
Surely Nathaniel Parker at least is worthy of consideration???
Anyways, my vote goes
Timothy Dalton 12

I know this game seems to have run its course back in 2007, but I think it's hilarious and just have to weigh in... plus, Michael Fassbender can now be added to the list!
By my calculation, the present standings (not counting deleted/confused posts), including my votes, are:
Timothy Dalton 12
Ciaran Hinds 11
William Hurt 7-1=6
Michael Jayston 8
George C. Scott 8
Toby Stephens 13+1=14
Orson Welles 11
Michael Fassbender 10
:)
Jayston is listed far too low, IMO.
He is second in my list of Rochesters.
Timothy Dalton 12
Ciaran Hinds 11
William Hurt 6
Michael Jayston 8
George C. Scott 8
Toby Stephens 14+1=15
Orson Welles 11
Michael Fassbender 10-1=9
Old post but who cares right?
