Why he might be annoying:

    He was thrown out of the Coldstream Guards 'because I was an ignorant yob, a lout.'
    He admitted that he upset his long-term partner Joanna David with his womanizing and his comment that fidelity in a man was 'not a matter of much importance.'
    He has been typecast, especially late in his career, as upper crust Englishmen.

Why he might not be annoying:

    The British Film Institute claimed, 'He has perhaps the most courteous smile in films.'
    He is an impeccable dresser.
    He won three BAFTA Awards: two as Best Supporting Actor for 'The Go-Between' and 'A Bridge Too Far' and Best TV Actor for 'Edward & Mrs. Simpson.'
