Clifford started acting at the age of 16 in his local theatre (the Kenneth More, Ilford) and quickly established himself as a versatile character actor. He has appeared in all genre of production from classics such as Marlowe's Edward II, through to pantomimes, comedies, farces and the odd musical.

Among his other stage appearances are playing Sir Winston Churchill (twice - Farewell Winston and The Public Interest) and as John Tarleton in George Bernard Shaw's Misalliance.

One of his favourite appearances was on his sleigh, complete with six real reindeer, on the runway at Manchester International Airport! And he was a regular on ITV's Text Santa and several shopping channels during the festive period.
His other credits include commercials for Specsavers, Ford, The Disney Store, Netto, Royal Mail, Transferwise, Dr Vegas, Nickelodeon, Meny (Norwegian Supermarket), Capital One Credit Cards, The Samaritans and Cadbury's Crème Eggs.
