    It Was Always You7.1

    Giles Panton is the kind of actor Hallmark keeps in the rotation without ever handing him the poster. He has been in nine films between 2015 and 2021, never the lead, the reliable supporting presence in someone else's small-town romance. He plays it straight, no winking, which is exactly what these stories want from a player in his slot. His best-reviewed outing is It Was Always You from 2021, a 7.1 and a clear step above his roughly 6.3 average, with The Christmas Promise and the Aurora Teagarden mystery Three Bedrooms, One Corpse just behind at 6.7. Summer turns up more than Christmas in his credits, which makes him a slightly unusual fit for a network built on December. If you watch enough of these, you have seen him, probably without catching the name.
