Daniel Mays has been in our living rooms for decades. From EastEnders and Line of Duty to Mrs Biggs and Thursday Murder Club, he’s become one of the most familiar and loved faces in British TV and film.
But long before he shared the screen with the likes of Michael Douglas and Stephen Graham, Daniel was the middle child in a working-class Essex family, desperate to be seen and heard. He found his voice through performing and never looked back.
In this conversation, Danny shares:
Daniel was a joy to talk to and he’s a reminder of what's possible when you back yourself and never let go of the dream.
Daniel Mays is Great Company.
