I began my professional career at the age of 18 as a performer/writer in residence at the MAC in Birmingham.  

 

From there, I went on to work at many of the top repertory theatres in the country, including Nottingham Playhouse, Birmingham Rep and Sheffield Crucible. ​

 

I also worked extensively on television for the BBC and ITV as well as appearing in several feature films including 'A Fish Called Wanda' and 'The Slipper and the Rose'.​

 

In 1990, I moved behind the camera and built a successful second career as a writer, director and producer delivering programming for BBC, ITV, Discovery, ESPN and UKTV.​

 

But I have now returned to being in front of the camera as an actor, which he has always regarded as 'unfinished business'
