William Miller

William Miller is the latest boy to play Oliver Twist, in a BBC adaptation (2007). He comes from Hackney, was born in 1996 and is the son of director Sam Miller and actress Janine Wood.

William plays football (soccer) for Leyton Orient juniors, and he's been scouted by Tottenham Hotspur. He says he is torn between his two loves of acting and football.

William is appearing in his second major TV series, called Runaway, on BBC1 from 19 March 2009. He plays Sean who runs away from trouble at home and school to live on the streets where he falls into the hands of a dodgy geezer - sounds a bit like a modern Oliver Twist.

FILIPPO PUCILLO gave a spirited performance as Filippo in the Italian film 'Respiro'. He does not appear to have featured in any other major productions, but he certainly displayed sufficient talent and a very natural ability in front of camera.

Filming Fact: When Filippo had to do a scene where he lays in bed with his mother, he stole four cans of beer and got himself drunk. The crew had to put him in the shower and sober him up before they could go ahead and shoot the scene.

PERRY MILLWARD - a wonderful young talent! Best known for his roles on the West End stage, his stunning performance as Gavroche in Les Misrables, and his magical moments as Michael Banks in Mary Poppins, and as Jeremy Potts in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. He has also appeared on TV in The Bill, and on The Trisha Show. Perry played the Artful Dodger in Celebrating Oliver on BBC1 during Christmas 2005.

Perry is not just a remarkable young actor, he also has a magnificently clear singing voice and a bouncing personality. He is definately one to watch, and maybe set for greater things in years to come.
