That’s Henry on the left as the likable rogue Fagin:

He was eventually hanged (Fagin, not Henry) though in some stage versions Fagin escapes with the Artful Dodger.

Henry added his own personality to the Fagin role — one in the past performed by Alec Guinness and Ben Kingsley.

On May 30th 2008, it was announced by Andrew Lloyd Weber and John Barrowman on Friday Night with Jonathon Ross that in the upcoming theatre production of ‘Oliver’, Rowan Atkinson will play the character of Fagin.
