Many thanks to @lawy_la @aledoesspanglish and @jahacomedy

This man has seen every school struggle, every career hiccough, every time I’ve started back from square one, every mental health episode, every girlfriend, every best mate, every unanswered self tape, every bombed gig, every failed recipe, every 3am Saturday close and every time I could never catch a rugby ball. He still tells me every day to keep going.

I am so very proud to have him by my side after what has been a very testing few months. If I’m half the man he is when I’m his age I’ll be extremely proud.

I find your lack of orgasm disturbing. Come down to @jst_standup every Thursday at 20:00 for more mental images you didn’t want.

Thank you very much 🕺🏻 @mcdonalds

What an absolute pleasure it was to visit #switzerland for the first time for this throwback advert for @mcdonalds_switzerland. Before you ask, no, they didn’t let me keep the costume.

Directed by @nicolatroehler and produced by @meretfruh for @storiesfilms. And big thanks to the wonderful @natalielaurenw for channeling her inner Marilyn Monroe so effortlessly!

Thanks to @belindanorcliffecasting and @alexpriestleytalent!

For those who have been spotting me popping up in your feed, yes! It’s me!

Had the most fantastic time shooting with @mariofeil who made everything so easy. A big shout out to my on screen son @cool_lemonade_ and partner @jessedecore.

Great work by @markenfilmcrossing! Thanks to all the production team who made a little corner of Copenhagen feel so cosy. Big love. ❤️.

When you’re drunk and you see a cat I regard it as a moral imperative to try and make friends.

Also like, I don’t know, just be nice to animals all the time, yeah?

It is finally here! The Flash is in cinemas now. Some old friends and some new coming together both on screen and off it. Hugely proud to have worked on this film. To have kept going through the challenges that we faced was remarkable.

From being introduced wearing a giant green condom, to becoming patient zero with @ellispartridge, to watching @peteralberti finally sign the paperwork he had worked so hard for. These memories will last forever.

Big love to Ezra, who always treated me and my small involvement with humour and respect.

To @ashii_90 and Laura who went out of their way to make me cry on my birthday, which I will never forget. To @dave_a_wilson who put up with countless hours of shit conversation when he was just trying to do his job.

The whole Barry squad of @peteralberti @attempt_46 @edkingsleywade @mejgreen, and of course @paulrsultana @hrjoness. You guys made standing amongst those hot screens for hours all worthwhile.

To all the cast and crew including both Andy and @barbaramus a massive thank you. I will never forget it.

Find someone who will meet you halfway up, like @axelceha did to drag me out of a spiral and force me to put running shoes back on after ten years. I’m not sure my relationship with food or training will ever fully be healthy, but I want to push out positivity as much as is possible. If someone reaches out and lends a hand, grab it damned hard.

Also drink loads and start doing stand up comedy.

Oh so apparently it’s #starwarsday so I thought I’d share this fun moment.

I was in absolutely no way meant to be involved in this scene at all. I wanted my face covered the entire time! However, after a late drop out I was forced out of my comfortable white armour and into this. It was a cast costume which I was absolutely forbidden to get dirty in any way… within 30 minutes I sat on a bench which promptly collapsed, covering me and the costume in hot coffee. @jimmypethrus and @damon.driver were obviously very understanding and didn’t laugh at all.

I still sometimes laugh to myself remembering moments from filming this incredible movie. “Who’s ready for Christmas?”

Big love to all the Star Wars fans out there. A hugely important part of my life though I rarely admit it. ;).

Demon eyes. Harry Potter scar. Freaky horse anatomy model. Trying to smile through a downturned mouth. This fat little nerd lives inside me and I love it. Be proud of what’s brought you to where you are!

For more weak observations poorly performed, come on down on Tuesday night. There will not be punch and pie, but the other comedians are actually good.

Apparently I also do stand up comedy as well as looking grumpy in photos. 7pm on September 7th at the James St Tavern.

Also if I could get a casting now that would be great.

So I turned 30. I celebrated the best way I know how. Eating chips on a street corner, slightly pissed.

Who would have thought Belgium could have been so much fun. ;). Big Love to all of you.

So very excited to announce that I am now represented by the amazing Mandy Perryment. The last few years have been quite the journey, and to move forward with someone with such a clear vision and drive is so inspiring.

Big love to anyone reading this and have an amazing weekend. ;).

🎶 Let’s Go Fly a Kite 🎶

Take some time to do something utterly ridiculous this week. Take a bath with some candles and listen to Joni Mitchell. Drive to a service station and buy a McFlurry. Draw your favourite animal. Do something out of the ordinary and you’ll be amazed at what extraordinary things can happen. BIG LOVE.

The last year has been such an incredibly transformative time. It’s absolutely true that love conquers all. No matter what you’re facing today, no matter what hardship, know that you are better than you were yesterday. You have never been in a better position. Love yourself, love others and love the world around you.

Or get freezing cold in November with your nipples out idk.

Also is this a good time to mention to @dccomics that Dick Grayson would probably hang around under bridges and stuff?

BIG. LOVE.

This week we are joined by ‘aspiring’ actor and previous work colleague, Torin Pocock, to discuss our experiences in the world of work. From working together as waiters, to me becoming his boss, we reflect on our alcoholic fuelled time at work together and investigate whether we are in the right career. We also discuss what it is like to work with world acclaimed actors such as Harvey from Rizzle Kicks. Hope you enjoy 😊”

I told @relaxel420 that he couldn’t take photos of people. This is my face when I realise he’s actually alright. Give him a follow @axelceha to see more.

Here’s a photo of me from a couple of years back that I’ve heavily edited because I don’t look like this now. I have been lazy. I have not committed. Filters can’t cover that. It’s time for me to get back to what I love the most. When you struggle to say no to people, you have to force room in your life for yourself. Now is that time. @martarubioagency let’s do this. 📸 - @nikkiwillsphotography

Merry Christmas! The beautifully talented @poetryofthecity got me walking round Oxford and looking moody. Absolute delight to work with. I hope HE’S BEEN for you all this morning. I got a big pack of chewing gum, kinder eggs and some Lynx Africa. In a stocking. In bed. I am living the dream. Have a fabulous Christmas and turn off your brain for a day. :). Love xxxx

See? I told you! So happy to see this movie coming to cinemas on December 20th. Massive shout out to director @ladoooski and producer @vzhun for making this happen. Also couldn’t have done it without my wonderful co-actors @inidimaokojie and @ihuomalindaejiofor. Thank you for making me feel so welcome and being my guide around Lagos. Also need to shout out to @donyayolee for putting up with my whining and @enebeli.ebele for being so much more than a writer. Also a huge thank you to the beautiful Lou at @q_t_management for her constant support and communication throughout. Couldn’t have done it without you. :). Still waiting on news as to how I can share it with all of you here in the UK, but as soon as I know I’ll be posting here. Much love! X

Some days it can be really difficult to get out of bed. Today was one of those mornings. I have been hugely rejecting social media recently - if I haven’t replied to a message from you, I’m sorry! If you have my mobile number the best way is always to call me.
However, sometimes you have to get up and do stuff. Not for someone else. Not because you have an appointment. Not because you’ll be letting people down if you don’t go. But because you want to. Amazing opportunities come up when you focus on yourself and what you want and soon enough you’ll be surprised at what you can achieve. From feeling like being at the very bottom to being right on top of the world (literally in this specific instance). You miss 100% of the chances you don’t take. It’s okay to miss some, but remember who you’re doing this for and you’ll appreciate those chances more and more. GET OUT AND DO SOME STUFF I BELIEVE IN YOU.
