Been some good ones over the years, Samuel L Jackson as “Jules”,in Pulp Fiction
“Brick top”and even “Fairbanks” in Foot Soldier are convincing.
Who stands out to you?

Paddy Considine - Richard. Dead man's shoes.
that's a classic scene when he's talking to Gary Stretch, with the rest of the gang sitting in the car

One of the most remarkable performances of an actor playing a hard man is Tom Hollander in the Night Manager. 5'5", better known for playing middle class congenial types, like in Rev, it was a truly transformational performance.
He was pretty terrifying as "The Fucker" in The Thick of It as well.
It would be difficult to reprise Corky as the character is dead.

I thought Ian McShane's character in Sexy Beast was scarier than Don Logan. That was real psychopathic menace.

Yes, brilliant as Corky, shame he won't be in the second series.
