The observant amongst us might have noticed Jim Murray at last’s year’s 2024 March for Clean Water carrying a very large fish named Sally. Best known for roles in Primeval and The Crown, the actor, artist and activist had his life turned upside down in 2009 when he and his wife the actress Sarah Parish lost their baby daughter to a congenital heart disease.

Seeking solace in fishing, Jim became aware of the plight of our rivers. Now he actively campaigns for clean water, founding Activist Anglers, hosting a podcast and championing the salmon. His latest art exhibition experimenting with canvas underwater was entitled Creatures of Light inspired by the words of poet Ted Hughes.
