About me
I have made 10 student films, one business training video , and one "inspirational" film, in all of which I have portrayed older men in various serious, sad or funny situations. I have been in a web advert, acted as an extra in a Fox Movie, and as an extra in a Bollywood film. I have played apart in small part in a TV drama to be shown in September.Prior to these, I have worked as Santa Claus in Lapland for eight years. and continue to do so in Shopping Malls, this past year in Milton Keynes.
I have performed Role Plays in scenarios, in schools, prisons , social work and medical training courses.
I have recorded three Audio Books for Amazon Audible.
I am enthusiastic, hard-working, motivated, and available.
My natural accent is "educated Scottish" (more Sean Connery than Billy Connelly!!)
I am a full member of Equity, and have an up-to-date CRB
Although actually living in the Midlands, I can easily relocate to virtually anywhere in UK if required for filming.
