He honed his skills in Fringe Theatre and landed his first professional theatre job in Phyllida Lloyd's 2006 award winning Donmar Warehouse West End production of Mary Stuart. His love for the screen, however, has since then taken his career, both as an actor and as a produced writer, into the British Film Industry and his CV now includes scores of features and countless short films.

He won the Best Actor Award at the London Independent Film Festival for his acclaimed portrayal of John Foster in the British comedy drama Being Sold directed by award winning director Phil Hawkins. He has also won multiple awards for the online series Ren - The Girl With the Mark that he co-created with director Kate Madison.

Christopher made his Television debut in early 2013 in the opening episode of the hit BBC drama series Call the Midwife, that drew in over 10 million viewers, followed by appearances in Doctor Who, The Bridge, EastEnders, Doctors, The Halcyon, critically acclaimed Channel 4 comedy series Home, and most recently the UKTV/Alibi crime series Annika and the exciting series And Then You Run (Sky Max).
