About me
At 6 foot 4, I am cast as quirky, wrinkled gentlemen, often requiring eyebrow acting: butlers, managers, John Cleese-types – with a dash of Terry Thomas.Recent TV work includes Rachel Nickell's father in C4's DECEIT, a discombobulated vicar in Warmer Bros' PENNYWORTH and Dominic Cummings' father Robert in Sky's THIS ENGLAND with Kenneth Branagh as Boris Johnson at the outset of the Covid crisis.
Most prestigious recent Christmas commercials include Posh Santa for M&S, a dotty Grandpa for Asda, and Scrooge for Currys PC World - for consecutive Christmas campaigns.
Once owned a theatre company called LEADING LIGHT, touring Sleuth and Hysteria. See timbartholomew.co.uk for further details.
Additional skills:
Novelist: LESSONS IN HUMILIATION, and the erotic trilogy, BODY LANGUAGE, LOVE KNOT and CASTING COUCH.
Illustrator: books (DRAGONS AT MARSHMOULDINGS, SCENTS AND SENSUALITY, THE BOOK OF BOTTOMS) and greetings cards.
Clean driving license. Mobile also in coracles and sailing boats, fork-lift trucks and bicycles.
Additional information:
Experienced LAMDA teacher – Acting, Devising and Public Speaking – UK and international pupils aged 11 to 20. Former classroom Drama teacher but mystified that GCSE and A level have more to do with box-ticking than with acting.
Fluent French speaker with BA Hons degree in French and Music (University of London Goldsmiths' College)
