Let's make this birthday one to remember.

54 years old (Born on July 10, 1970)

Happy Birthday to the talented John Simm—the detective who made us believe in time travel, space adventures and gritty mysteries all rolled into one! Whether you're keeping beat as a musician or darting across timelines as Doctor Who's unforgettable Master, your versatility never ceases to amaze.

From chasing down conspiracies in "State of Play" to waking up baffled (and brilliantly witty) on 1970s streets in "Life on Mars," you've consistently delivered iconic performances that transcend decades. Here's hoping this birthday brings you laughter brighter than Gallifrey fireworks—and considerably fewer paradoxes!

Cheers for another timeless journey around the sun!
