Brian Yarwood
- Actor
Brian was born in Birkenhead, Merseyside in 1955, but spent most of his
childhood in Waterloo, Liverpool, attending Waterloo County Secondary
School. Leaving school at 15, Brian went on to work in a landscape
gardening company until joining the services and spending the next 17
years of his life abroad. On his return to the UK Brian was offered a
small part in a production and his career started there. Realising his
knowledge of the business was not so good, Brian went back to college
and studied performing arts, stage management, lighting and sound etc.
During his time at college Brian started his rounds on the comedy
circuit and got very positive reviews, which in turn led him start his
career as a actor. Brian has performed in many theater productions in
the North West of England in productions such as Macbeth, Blood
Brothers, Our Country's Good, Crucible, but is probably best known for
his portrayal of Thomas Kirby in the production Good Grief Father
