Robson Green has made a name for himself for his roles on several TV shows, including Grantchester, Wire in the Blood and recent Channel 5 hit The Game.
Although he’s perhaps more famous for portraying Geordie Keating in the popular ITV drama, he’s made quite the name for himself in factual entertainment of late, especially for his Weekend Escapes travelogues, which is on BBC Two tonight (June 23).
Here’s a deep dive into the life of Robson Green, including his career, wife and personal scandals. They read more like a TV script than a TV script!
What is Robson most famous for?
Robson Green currently plays DI Geordie Keating in Grantchester. But he became famous in the 1980s playing Jimmy Powell in BBC One’s Casualty.
He went on to star as Dave Tucker in Soldier Soldier, alongside Jerome Flynn’s Paddy Garvey. The pair became quite the double act, and even released several songs together under Simon Cowell’s record label.
Simon was so keen to sign the duo that Robson reportedly threatened legal action to stop The X Factor star from harassing them! Not cool, Simon, not cool!
Robson also played Dave Creegan in Touching Evil, Joe Purvis in Grafters, Colin in Northern Lights, and Rob Scotcher in Waterloo Road.
He joined the cast of Grantchester in 2014. Robson has also won over a new audience with his lifestyle shows, including Robson Green: Extreme Fisherman, Tales from Northumberland, and Robson Green: Walking Coast to Coast.
