Neil Reidman

Neil Reidman (born early 1970s) is a British film and TV actor.

Reidman was born in Birmingham, England. His parents were from Jamaica. At the age of 13 he began attending Birmingham School of Speech and Drama and soon after, he auditioned for the Central Junior Television Workshop. That audition landed him a spot at the Midlands Arts Centre. Later, he trained in method acting at the Rose Bruford College of Speech and Drama in London. His early work included roles in productions of Prince of Morocco, Merchant of Venice, and Pinocchio. He is perhaps best known for his role as Lt. Atillo in the popular BBC TV drama Doctor Who.

Reidman made his television debut in 2000 with a walk-on role in the show Tough Love, and later that year, he had a recurring role in three episodes of The Bill, where he played the part of Daryl Gilchrist.

2001 saw him in the role of Neil for a single episode of Doctors. Then, for the 2002-03 television season, he appeared in three episodes of Holby City, in the role of DC Windsor.

In 2007, Reidman achieved his most prominent role to date appearing as "Lieutenant Atillo" in Doctor Who.

Other television appearances include EastEnders and roles in Body Story, Casualty, Crimewatch File, Nature Boy, Come Outside (which starred Lynda Baron of Open All Hours), and All About Me with Jasper Carrot.
