He had been studying Law at Hull University for two years before getting his first break in TV appearing in Where The Heart Is. From there on in, Andrew has not looked back and has starred in numerous TV shows such as Heartbeat and Doctors and in Coronation Street (as pizza boy Liam Strong). During 2004 Andrew was seen regularly on our screens with a starring role in teen soap Hollyoaks as aspiring Casanova Robbie Flynn, the good time party boy with an eye for the ladies. Andrew originally performed under his birth name "Andrew Newton", but after a few weeks on Hollyoaks had to change his stage name to avoid confusion with the controversial stage hypnotist of the same name.
