John played by David Bamber. Bamber has appeared in countless TV series, including Midsomer Murders, The Bill, Heartbeat, New Tricks, Doc Martin, Father Brown. He's also had an extensive film career. I guessed John was him from his distinctive voice & diction.

@@Wendyj55 Yes, I agree, though we didn't see much of Bewes work out here in Australia. I know he was in a series with the better-known James Bolam. I recall Bamber being in 2 Midsomer Murders episodes: the one involving the art forgeries (he played a dodgy antiques dealer) and another where Barnaby was shocked to see Mrs Rainbird & her son, Dennis at a local fair....though they turned out to be relatives of the actual, late, Mrs Rainbird & Dennis killed off in The Killings at Badgers' Drift

it's called ''unconditional love''. Love knows not reason. I agree it's strange but many marriages work like this, both ways round, 'cheating' husbands, 'in some, cheating' wives in others.
