Personal Quote:

I never attended a drama school so I'm not a "proper" actor. Acting is good because it's open to everyone, with any type of career, this way they can bring their lifestyle to work with them.

Originally auditioned for the part of Lister in Red Dwarf (1988), but was cast as Rimmer instead. See more »
