OTHER THINGS
I have many sides to my creative output outside of writing. Here are a few bits and pieces that will help you make up the whole picture of my skills and interests.

ACTING
I have appeared as an actor on TV quite a few times as well as in film and in ads. What do I want? A special winners medal?
Highlights have included appearing as ‘Sid’ in BAFTA winning BBC show ‘Murder In Successville, portraying Liam Gallagher on Channel 4’s ‘Very Important People’. I played a couple of roles in DAVE Storytelling show ‘Crackanory’ and in 2018 somehow ended up portraying Gareth Southgate as a useless idiot on Tracey Ullman’s BBC1 show ‘Tracey Breaks The News’ literally days before he became a hero.

MUSIC
I have been a singer and songwriter and played in bands and on my own for years. Sometimes that has led me to contributing music to comedy and commercial productions too. See some examples below and if you’re of a mind, check out my soundcloud pages for free before I become a rock star which is obviously still going to happen.

SOUNDCLOUD PAGES
I like horribly honest converations. Shoot me.
VOICES
I love podcasts and think it is a hugely exciting area for all types of programming as well as for branded content. In fact, I am currently at the early stages of building up ‘Silly Billy Studios’, which will be a company dedicated to serving the commercial and comedy ends of the so-called Podiverse. So more on that as it grows. For now though here is a link to ‘Sick Minds’, the Podcast I make with comedy writing buddy Alistair Griggs. I am also capable of high quality character voiceover in a variety of styles and accents. I once even did some VO for some sketches on legendary Vic and Bob show SHOOTING STARS.
