Early-life: Neil Anthony Morrissey was born on July 4, 1962, in Staffordshire, one of four sons of Irish Catholic parents. He and brother Stephen were caught by police during a spree of petty pilfering. They were separated, sent to a children's home and grew up in care.

Career: Morrissey made ends meet by taking on advertising work, eventually making his TV debut in a 1984 Juliet Bravo episode. The same year he had a small role in The Bounty alongside Anthony Hopkins and Mel Gibson. Morrissey's big break came in Boon, playing sidekick Rocky for five years before quitting in 1992. Six series of Men Behaving Badly turned him into a major TV star. Other projects include A Woman's Guide To Adultery, Happy Birthday Shakespeare, Hunting Venus, Up 'n' Under, My Summer With Des, The Match and Paradise Heights. He was the original voice of Bob the Builder and had hit records as the character.
