The famous faces from film and TV to have come from the Everyman and Playhouse Youth Theatre

David Morrissey has won widespread praise for his role in the hit BBC drama Sherwood.

The Kensington-born star played DCS Ian St. Clair in the six-part series, which concluded on Tuesday. The show's plot followed a manhunt in Sherwood Forest, after two murders bring simmering tensions to the boil in a fractured former mining village in Nottinghamshire.

After garnering rave reviews, the drama has been tipped for awards - as has David's performance. It is the latest success in a long career on the big and small screens for David, whose route into the performing arts came from Liverpool's Everyman and Playhouse Youth Theatre.
