2002's award for his Performance in Bbc Two 's Perfect Strangers was, remarkably, his third win in as many years.

Gambon amassed a legion of new fans for his Performance as Professor Albus Dumbledore in Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban - a role he inherited following the death of Richard Harris in 2002.
