He also played Detective Sergeant Ray Lloyd in police drama Murder Prevention.[4] His two most renowned appearances in Hollywood blockbusters were as Hogg the Whaler in Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, and Tecton, a soldier in Troy.[5]

In 2001 he also portrayed Igraine's second husband Uther Pendragon in the American TV miniseries The Mists of Avalon. He played Irfon in S4C's Con Passionate, Josi in Sian James' Calon Gaeth,[6] and Bryan Jones in Y Pris.[7]

In 2009 he was a special guest in the BBC Cardiff Singer of the World competition, broadcast on 11 June on BBC Two (Wales only).
