Famous for Acting
Nigel Derek Harman is an English actor, most famous for his role as Dennis Rickman in the UK soap opera EastEnders. He has worked mostly in theatre, with the stage being described as his "first love".
He most recently starred in the final series of Hotel Babylon.

In the theatre, he has played various musical roles including Sky Masterson in Michael Grandage's revival of Guys and Dolls and Lord Farquaad in the original London production of Shrek the Musical for which he received the Olivier Award for his performance.

Nigel grew up in Woldingham, Surrey and was educated at elite Dulwich College. However, he found school difficult: "I was never comfortable sitting down. I always wanted to get involved in something, not just learn and write. I was in so much trouble I had my own desk in detention." His father was a bank manager, but also involved in amateur dramatics including work with CODA (Croydon operatic and Dramatic Association), an interest which was passed on to Nigel. His mother was also involved in the productions; though she died when Nigel was 18.
