Rock was born very young at 32 Arden Grove, Langley, a small terraced house in the West Midlands.From a very early age he knew he wanted to act. One of his passions as a child in the 70's was to tape record himself and his pals acting out little "plays" they had written accompanied with ingenious sound effects made from household items.Schooling was not an enjoyable experience for the free spirited Rock, although he did well in Geology and went on to study it further at college.At the age of 18 he moved to Mid Wales to begin training as an outdoor pursuits instructor. This was seasonal work and so he would return to the Midlands to work as a driver, and later a motorcycle instructor, when there was no longer any outdoor activities to teach. Rock gained his LGV class 1 licence in 1993 which gave him better driving opportunities including delivering trucks and tractors on a low loader across Europe.In 1995 after a number of years teaching outdoor pursuits, Rock had the opportunity to act in a movie called "On Dangerous Ground" Starring Rob Lowe and directed by Lawrence Gordon Clark. This was a reward for taking the crew abseiling one evening. Rock had a fight scene with Rob and became good friends with many of the cast and crew. Almost immediately he went on to act in "An Englishman Who Went Up a Hill and Came Down a Mountain", starring Hugh Grant. In retrospect Rock should have continued pursuing his acting career at that point but he instead continued teaching in Mid Wales until, some years later when his Mother became sick, he returned to the Midlands to help look after her. It was here that he met his future wife Amanda, a newly qualified nurse. In 2002, a year after his mother died, he and Amanda were married. In 2008 he became a father to a beautiful boy- Oliver George, a natural story teller and very talented singer who is now following his Father into the wonderful world of acting.Rock always knew instinctively that he not only wanted to act but that he wanted his career to be that of a professional actor. He joined his local theatre where he was encouraged enormously. He was told by an experienced actor/ professional drama teacher that he "Had it!". That was the catalyst that pushed Rock in the right direction.He has now acted in a number of television programmes and in numerous TV and feature movies. Rock is a very focused and determined actor who enjoys playing serious reflective characters but also comical roles. He is a natural comedian and a talented mimic.Rock enjoys singing and has a decent strong voice. Again he has the ability to mimic some very famous voices. He also writes songs, poems and screenplays.Rocks ambition is to become a successful movie actor and to continue his interest in theatre and television. Show less «
