Well, according to his Biography page, right here on IMDB, he's 5' 5" (1,65 m). The same height has been mentioned in articles/interviews as being the same height as one os his (real life) characters - Arthur Lowe, so it's probably correct.

toby may have slight achondroplasia: an observation not solely based on his height (yes, he's below average) but it's his facial features. for instance, those with achondroplasia often have a larger sized forehead.

it's curious because I just looked up to see if he was one of the actors playing a dwarf (little person) in Snow White and the Huntsman-because I was sure it was he, Toby Jones, the same actor who played Dr. Jenkins in Wayward Pines-and he was-very talented and in fact, even he has remarked about his height.

The first thing I wanted to know about this guy was how tall he was, in the same way you might want to know how much Sidney Greenstreet weighed, or the details of any other obvious, notable characteristic.
I agree that 5' 5" sounds a bit generous.

Thank you, MdP2. Reading this thread has reinforced my opinion that there are far too many people of sub-standard intelligence posting here. It's a perfectly reasonable question, and I would like to know myself. The 5'5" listed by IMDb may be inaccurate with a bow to the faithful, IMDb does make mistakes sometimes. I personally doubt that Toby Jones is 5'5" more likely 5'2" or 5'3". That's not to say that it's important, it simply is what it is. There are three I can think of that you didn't mention: Alan Ladd (5'4"), Mickey Rooney (5'3") and Dick Cavett (5'3"). Does the fact that they're short detract in any way from their extraordinary talent? I think not, and you apparently agree.
As a matter of (historical) fact, the average height of a British soldier in World War I was 5'4". That's an AVERAGE. I wonder if Queen Elizabeth I had a court jester who was a dwarf; there have been several in royal history, and the jester was usually highly intelligent and often a close advisor to the king or queen. Perhaps the character Toby played against Helen Mirren was, indeed, called "midget" by the Queen, who was herself small and would have enjoyed having a courtier smaller than she was.

ALL RIGHT ALREADY!!!!!
I'm short (4'10") and I'm curious when I see other short people (or extremely tall people) just how tall they are. I'm not judging them. I'm not stereotyping them. I just want to know how tall they are.
Does your height say anything about your character, intelligence, talents, etc.? Of course not.
It just says how long your leg bones are.
Give me love

, give me peace onb68 earth.

On the film infamous he looks smaller than 5.5 but matbe its being in the picture with people 6ft and taller. Before anyone freaks im 5.6 myself.
Small but perfectly formed im told. lol

It's listed on his biography section. He is 5' 5"
Was that so hard to just give mirai the answer to the question?

"Are these boards not for asking questions? Why does someone always get offended? We want to know things? JUST BECAUSE.
(How old is someone? Are they gay/straight? Are they married? Where were they born? What is their ethnicity? How tall are they?)
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THAT?"
I'm sorry, but when does gay/straight EVER come into an ACTING job? Or married? Oh no, Brad Pitt is married now, that means he is a horrible actor. OH NO, BRAD PITT IS MARRIED AND HE IS HOMOSEXUAL THIS MAKES HE ABSOLUTELY AWFUL TO PLAY THE NEXT SINGLE HETEROSEXUAL GUY!
Ok curiousity is one thing but when it comes to acti5b4ng, sexuality doesnt matter you numbnut.

Agreed. Why would anyone make a big deal about someone asking how tall an actor is? Granted, that information IS in their IMDb mini biography but still. I swear, some people (like cosmogirly) enjoy making mountains out of mole hills for no apparent reason other than just to rile people up. I can't stand people who so easily take offense to anything and everything and complain about it. Yes, the only reason people are curious is so they can gloat.
By the way, that last sentence was thickly coated with sarcasm. I feel the need to always explain myself thoroughly on these boards
Isn't curiosity what brings people to sites like this in the first place?

Only on IMDB could a question of height turn into a flame war

what kind of person takes offense at someone asking the height of an actor??
it is just information fo16d0r beep sake..

Why do I see so many times this kind of questions, when you have what you're looking for on his imdb biography? It beats me

I found candamc's persisting pseudo-interest in Toby Jones' height amusing. Why does it matter how tall he is? You'll be surprised how people can make big judgements on insignificant things such as height, skin colour, gender etc.
If impersonating a Police Officer is an offence, shouldn't actors be imprisoned?

yeah, capote was 5'2'' apparently
wikipedia that beep

how pathetic
what does his height matter?
It matters, since he seems to be consistently cast as a very (even extremely) short person.
In "Elizabeth I", Helen Mirren (as Elizabeth) called him "midget" (or something like that) all the time.
So, his height DOES matter in his acting career.
And it's certainly no offense to him. Everyone can see that he is also an extremely talented and sensitive actor.
P.S. By the way, I thought he was WAAAY shorter. In fact, he's just the same height as Michael J. Fox.

How tall somebody is DOES matter because it's part of the character they are playingESPECIALLY if the person they are playing is a real life character who in fact was short.

you're being way too sensitive. It's interesting to know how height is addresssed in moviemaking and camera angles used to portray an effect. For example, Bilbo Baggins in Lord of the Rings is actually normal height (can't recall the actor's name) but when filmed next to Gandalf, actually seemed much shorter. He also made an excellent Napoleon. So lighten up.

and to be fair, when they did ask this question. IMDB didn't have his height up yet.

I think it a perfectly reasonable question. Maybe he is asking because he himself is short, and "looks up" no pun intended to the actor as a role model. But regardless, it is a perfectly b68reasonable question.

One of these days no one will be allowed to have an opinion. No wonder parents hate when kids say, "ok" or "I don't know". Kids feel it opens a can of worms if they give an opinion. Really, this is getting too PC.
I'm interrested in his height. People makes it sound it's against the law to ask anything that makes people sound that they can be different. Thank goodness we all come in different sizes, shapes, colors, etc., or we all will be boring.

you dont come across as a nice person calling someone a "B"

look, cosmogirly, i really am a nice person, but people like you really start to annoy me. please, stop being a bitch for no other reason than to be a bitch. if your only intention for being on the boards is to instigate than please remove yourself because no one here wants to have to listen (read, sorry) your beep
