His first professional work was in the play 'Bottle Universe' in London's West End, which won him the British Theatre Guide's award for the most promising newcomer. Small roles in television shows like 'The Bill' and 'Waterloo Road' followed and in 2008 he joined the cast of 'Coronation Street' as a member of the troublesome Windass clan. Show less «
