A blast from the past. Me as Gordon, Lynn's boyfriend, in Alan Partridge. Great job.

A selection of photos from my 50+year career, which I take with me when I give my talks. From 'Waiting For Godot' to 'Coronation Street' - there's a lot of wonderful memories there #jobbingactor #actorslife

My first pro job, A Bequest to the Nation at the Haymarket Theatre, London. 12 mth run from Sept 1968. Alec Guinness recommended me for the role & I'll always be grateful as it was the start of my 50+ yr career. Cast inc Ian Holm, Brian Glover, Deborah Watling & Michael Aldridge

An independent film I had a lead role in. I was very flattered that the character I played was written especially for me. We toured it as a stage play in 2012 & 2014 before it was filmed in 2017. It was great fun.

Me in Waiting For Godot at Harrogate Theatre in 1978. Myself, Harry Beatie & Alec Linstead were the main cast. Directed by Mark Piper. I played Estragon. It was a very long time ago, but I remember we played to full houses & it was very well received. #actorslife #jobbingactor

I see an episode of Heartbeat I was in (from 2002) is on itv3 at 6.55pm this evening. S11, E23 'Caught in the Headlights'. I appeared in 4 eps of Heartbeat over the years, all different characters. Pics here are from the episode tonight. Repeated tomorrow at 12.40pm

A few photos from some days out I've had this month. The Gaia art installation at Beverley Minster and a visit to Eden Camp near Malton. #Yorkshire #Daytripping
