Born in Bristol in the west of England, in the 1970s, Neil is an award-winning British actor. With a background in stand-up and improvised comedy, Neil has maintained a theatrical career parallel to his very successful television presenting work (which includes MTV, National Geographic and sports hosting for many international events and broadcasters). Acting since the age of 15, trained in Bristol and London, Neil brings naturalism and physicality to screen roles. A core cast member of Prime Video's Dark Ditties horror comedy anthology series sees Neil embody a wide range of characters from the cockney criminal Larry The Latch in Finders Keepers to comic misfit Kev Williams in The Witching Hour. Soon to be seen in a leading role as Benjamin Mason Smith in forthcoming feature film The Chain, and as Jarrod Edwards in science fiction feature film Sentinel.
