Biography

Roy began as a stunt performer in 1968 working on dozens of television shows including the children's drama Follyfoot, the long running Emmerdale Farm (as it was then known) and The New Avengers whose director was so impressed by him that he suggested him to the makers of A Bridge Too Far and within days he was on location in Holland on Richard Attenborough's reconstruction of the disastrous Operation Market Garden. Since then he acquired the reputation of a solid all rounder who was always in demand so much so that he was listed in the Guiness Book of Records as the world's most prolific stuntman.He as British Stuntman of the Year in 1983 and held the UK 'high fall' record of 138 feet or 12 storeys on the tv show Taggart. His skills led him to being nominated for an award in the World Stunt Awards for his work on Die Another Day. When he was asked what his most dangerous stunt was , his reply was 'The Next One'
