The first baby born in Ireland 1981 at 00.01 AM January 1st.
Was surprised about getting the role of Robin Hood because he thought
he would be too thin.
He was born in Ireland but raised in St. Annes, Lancashire, England and
educated at Arnold School in Blackpool, England.
He graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) in 2003.
The 'Sheriff of Nottingham' & 'Robin Hood' are reunited in an episode of BBC One new series 'The Body Farm' airing in autumn 2011. With Keith Allen playing the detective & Jonas Armstrong as Nick Warner.
Used to watch the 'Robin Hood' series when he was a boy with his dad.
