Biography

Andrew Lancel was born on 3 August, 1970 in Rufford, Lancashire. He started his acting career in local theatre and as a cabaret singer. He gained fame as the lead role in the groundbreaking medical series "Cardiac Arrest" with Helen Baxendale. Since then he has become a well established theatre and television actor with a reputation for seeking controversial roles and projects. Lancel has appeared in the film "Wide-Eyed and Legless" with Julie Walters and Jim Broadbent and recently in the film "Burn" playing the lead role which was created for him by the director Russell Mardell. He was described as the most realistic doctor on TV and sporadically was TV's most hated man after roles in "City Central", "Bad Girls" and Queer as Folk.

Andrew currently stars in "The Bill" as DI Neil Manson. His character's most notable and memorable storyline was the 13-month long Amy Tennant MISPER case, concerning a young child who mysteriously vanished. This was also the longest ever storyline attempted in the history of "The Bill". Speaking to The Sun, he says how he has been swamped by compassionate letters and emails from viewers as his character DI Neil Manson searches for the truth about missing Amy Tennant; "For me it’s been emotional to work on as it’s hard not to get involved. Missing loved ones is a major problem in today’s society."citeweb|url=http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/a43002/the-bill-star-swamped-by-moving-letters.html|title="The Bill" star swamped by moving letters|publisher=The Sun|accessdate=2007-03-27]

He continues to perform in concert and cabaret as well as actively supporting the charity "World Vision". He is also a passionate supporter of "Everton F.C". Andrew became a dad for the first time on December 7th 2007 with the birth of his son Isaac.
