Peter Gunn, born 13 February 1963 in Lytham St Annes, is an English actor who’s appeared in several TV series and films. He has been married to Julie L. Livesey since July 2000 and they have two sons, George and Tom.
On British television, perhaps Gunn is best known as the character Len Cosgrove in the BBC series Born and Bred as well as dozens of guest-starring and recurring roles in other television series and films such as: Brassed Off! (1996), Frost, Heartburn Hotel, and Sunshine. To American audiences, he may be better known for Blue Juice (1995), EverAfter (1998), Hannah Montana: The Movie (2009) and 24 Hour Party People (2002).
Gunn has also appeared in Coronation Street as Brian Packham, former partner of Julie Carp and former Headmaster of Bessie Street School since 2010. He also starred as Pat Kennedy on the ITV drama series London’s Burning in 2000. In 2006, Gunn appeared in three television adverts for John Smith’s. In 2022, he appeared in Celebrity Antiques Road Trip. But there’s more to see in Gunn’s long list of TV and film appearances, and surely much more to come.
