Hi there, I'm Ben. Many years ago I decided I wanted to be an actor so I went to Willpower Theatre School to train. I got my first big break on a BBC2 Screen Drama called 'Stone, Scissors, Paper' which won the 'BBC Dennis Potter's Writer of the Year Award'. I carried on working as an actor through my teens and then I landed a part on Channel 4's controversial hit 'Queer As Folk'. I'm proud to say the series went on to win many awards all over the world and America decided to make their own version. As you can imagine I was ecstatic when they asked me to return to play my character 'Christian' in 'Queer as Folk 2'
Over the years the I have made numerous performances on Television and Film including BBC’S ’Casualty’, Granada’s ’Crossroads’ and the film ’Boom, Boom, Clap’ which won critical acclaim at the Cannes Film festival.
Then for some strange reason I stopped acting and started writing. 4 years went by before I realised that acting is in my blood and that it was the profession I will always want to do. So here I am, starting afresh you could say. I have begun my journey once more. I'm acting, writing, creating all for one goal - To fulfill my dream.
If you want to get to know me better just ask me, although here are a few things I thought I'd share.
I would personally describe myself as an actor, a writer, a dj, a comedian, a humanitarian.
I'm very passionate, caring, free-thinking and sentimental.
I am single yet unavailable.
I can't kill any kind of bug, I have to step over ants and shoo away flies and wasps.
I have been used and I have used. From both I have learned a lesson.
The best thing to do in the world is to laugh.
There is a certain day every year that I cry on.
I get on with three year olds better than I do with thirty three year olds.
I still go on adventures like I did as a child.
I have and enjoy my luxurious lifestyle.
I'm my own Guardian Angel.
I never raise my voice or shout at people.
Talk about my family and I'll eat you.
One day I'll fly away.
I'm searching for Inner peace.
I very nearly got married.
Everyday people inspire me to be a better person.
I dance away my problems.
I don't smoke, do drugs, drink Alcohol or caffeine, I'm a vegetarian and I'm celibate too.
I'm extremely flirtatious.
I'm not afraid to be alone.
There is nobody or nothing in my life that I hate.
I do my own stunts
I specialize in Paradox, Humour and Change.
The thing I am most looking forward to is being a father.
I'm the most confident person I know.
And the most insecure.
My friends and family are paramount to me and I will do anything for them.
I miss my Nan the most.
I grew up in a little town called Wigan but moved out when I turned 18 and haven't gone back.
I love to travel and have no idea where abouts in the world I will settle down. I suppose it all depends on where my career takes me.
