Ayup, Me Ducks!
I'm Mark, a professional Actor/Presenter, originally from Nottingham and now I live in London.
As an actor I trained at The National Youth Theatre and the BAFTA Award Winning Television Workshop. Eventually I went to the drama school ALRA in London and graduated the BA Acting course with a First Class Honours degree. I have gone on to perform on stage, in short films and in voiceovers for Spotify & Formula E.
Presenting started for me when a director recommended it. I trained as an intern at Capital FM East Midlands and at the community station Erewash Sound and have continued to learn in radio 'on the job'. So far I have presented professionally for Frisk Radio across the North East and covered for MORE Radio in Sussex over Christmas 2023. I have also hosted live events for brands including Sofar Sounds and Cancer Research's Race For Life.
Also a HUGE fan of anything dogs, Fifa, food... and you'll usually find me with a brew.

Backstage Brew
The whole series came from a conversation about needing a unique selling point. So... I combined being from Nottingham and my love for a cheeky brew with the both the acting and presenting careers and this is what was created.
I get to go backstage at theatres, TV sets, gigs and festivals and interview artists and cast members!
