Lee Ingleby
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lee Ingleby (born January 28, 1976) is a British actor.
He was born in Burnley, Lancashire, in England. He is perhaps most well-known for his role as Stan Shunpike in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, but he has made numerous appearances in British television drama and comedy in recent years. These include a lead role as Sean O'Neill in Jimmy McGovern's The Street, and a recurring role in the second series of Early Doors as Mel's boyfriend, Dean. In addition, he played a significant part in the final episode of series one of Life on Mars, playing Sam Tyler's father Vic, and made a memorable appearance in Spaced in 2001 (which was, along with Harry Potter, a rare occasion upon which he did not use his natural Northern accent, instead playing a Cockney).
His first major role was as the young lead in the 2000 BBC miniseries Nature Boy, alongside Paul McGann, and he has also made one-off appearances in Hustle, Clocking Off, No Angels, Fat Friends, Jonathan Creek, Dalziel and Pascoe and The Bill, in addition to a supporting role in the 2003 Peter Weir film Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. He also guest starred in the Doctor Who audio adventure, Terror Firma.
