<p>I'm a British actor of the last 19 years and a director, producer and screenwriter of the last 10 years.<br> </p><p>Originally a theatrical actor I've started to carve a niche into film and TV since moving to London, starting at the bottom and working my way up... still getting there ;)</p><p> </p><p>I formed Gin and Tonic Productions five years ago, to produce less than conventional productions, and to discover hidden talents, with an original aim for the companies signature feature film to be a romantic comedy that was smart, sexy, and refreshing. </p><p> </p><p>A big of the Avengers TV series, I was dismayed that little was done to celebrate it's 50th anniversary, so in a 'fan' capacity I've been writing a treatment for a tribute to the series, rebooting the characters of John Steed and Emma Peel in a contemporary setting.</p><p> </p><p>Never afraid to rise to a new challenge, I enjoy writing and producing and acting within limited areas embracing opportunities to find new, improvised and creative ways of telling a story, commiting an idea to film come what may.</p><p> </p><p>Someone told me that it takes five years to start getting a film company off the ground... they weren't kidding, but it's a learning curve that prepares for you for the rollercoaster of film-making.</p>
