Nick was born in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England on the 4th of October 1980. On leaving school he was offered a place at Cambridge University, but instead chose to study geophysics at the University of Durham, graduating with a first. Whilst at Durham he became involved in the local comedy circuits but on leaving did accept an offer from Cambridge to read for a doctorate in seismology. However he never completed his course because after joining the Footlights Revue and appearing at the Edinburgh Fringe he was spotted by a BBC producer who offered him radio work. He has since appeared in numerous sitcoms -Miranda (2009),Life's Too Short (2011)and most notably as the annoying promotions manager inJessica Knappett'sDrifters (2013).In 2014 his persona of Mr. Swallow attracted huge critical claim in a comic reworking of Dracula on stage and two years later he was similarly lauded as this time Mr. Swallow took on the role of Harry Houdini, appearing nightly in a glass tank like Houdini himself. The show transferred from Edinburgh and opened in London's Soho Theatre in 2017.
