Ben Kitchener

Ben began his carer at a young age, studying drama, singing and dance. Throughout this time he gained a substantial amount of experience through performing in a variety of theatre productions. Ben has also been in several adverts, for products such as Sprite, Coke and Starburst and has played many feature parts in TV dramas such as The Vice, The Bill and Eastenders. Beyond a doubt, his biggest role to date was through his involvement with Teletubbies, where he played the blue hover noo noo for over a year.
