Paul Helsby Profile

I am an experienced, reliable supporting actor living in North London. I have good access to public transport, and my own car.

I trained at the Unseen Acting School in central London, which I continue with on an ongoing basis. I am proficient, confident & happy engaging in speaking roles.

In the last few months I have been involved with a number of different projects, all very different:

Historical drama filmed for Netflix – Priest
Documentary drama for ITV – pub goer
TV advert for Sky Sports due for release summer 2024
Contemporary rap artist video – semi-featured role
'Beta Squad' YouTube channel - featured in 'Guess Who' comedy quiz

Prior to working as a supporting actor, I was an officer with the Metropolitan Police, most of my career being spent as a Scotland Yard detective investigating major crime. I am a regular gym goer & swimmer, and also play Walking Football (it is a thing), twice a week.

Also a musician, I have played drums and guitar for over 50 years.
