For a period spanning more than twenty years, he committed himself to a deeply rewarding profession as a design technology teacher, commencing his journey by instructing students with typical learning abilities, subsequently shifting his focus to cater to the distinct needs of students with special requirements, and ultimately developing a specialization in addressing the singular challenges presented by adolescents grappling with behavioral issues.
During a brief and seemingly insignificant interlude of unemployment at the tail end of the 1990s, he seized the opportunity to delve into the world of film, capitalizing on his momentary freedom to explore the cinematic landscape.
In this fleeting period of professional limbo, he made the most of his time by landing a truly unforgettable role as a barbarian in the spectacularly successful film Gladiator, drawing heavily upon his vast and extensive experience with the longbow, a skill he had honed over many years.
After his departure from the world of education, he ventured back into the realm of teaching, where he resumed his role as a mentor and educator. In the midst of his newfound passion for teaching, he also made a few notable appearances in a comedic film titled "Gladiatress".
After weighing his options carefully, he made the bold decision to trade in his teaching career for the thrill of acting, allowing him to fully indulge his long-held passion for the craft.
Next, he landed a role in the film Centurion, where he brought his rugged, bearded archer character to life with conviction and charisma.
Throughout the span of his illustrious career, he has devoted himself to a plethora of period dramas, consistently bringing to life complex characters characterized by their unruly beards, unconventional behaviors, and unparalleled proficiency with the longbow, a trusty companion that has accompanied him through various roles, with occasional forays into more avant-garde and demanding performances.
