    Neil Morrissey Career

    He successfully applied to the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. The school helped him gain an educational grant for his first year as he joined the school with no education grant. During this time he started a street theatre act along with his friends which earned them an agent and hence the required 40 hours of bookings to gain an Equity card. Neil was offered a leading role at The Theatre Chipping Norton’s 1982 pantomime as Robin Hood which led to his drop from the Guildhall School in the first term of his third year. In the mid-1980s, he shot to fame after he featured in the ITV drama series Boon as Rocky.

    Neil Morrissey Affair

    In 2000 he had a six weeks affair with Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden, who was married to Les Dennis at the time. Les went onto Celebrity Big Brother after and revealed his depression over the scandal on the show. Les and Amanda split over it, although Neil has said that their marriage was over before he came on the scene.

    Men Behaving Badly

    In 1992 he played the leading role of Tony Smart in Men Behaving Badly, a British sitcom. It follows the lives of Gary Strang (Martin Clunes) and his flatmates Dermot Povey (Harry Enfield; series 1 only) and Tony Smart (Neil Morrissey; series 2 onwards). The TV show was highly successful and won the Comedy Awards’ best ITV comedy, and the first National Television Award for Situation Comedy.

    Neil Morrissey Pub

    Neil Morrissey owns a chain of pubs in Staffordshire, including The Plume of Feathers in Barlaston. In 2017 their boozer was shortlisted in the best partnership pub category for 2017. In January 2017 health inspectors ordered the pub to improve after it breached hygiene rules nine times. The health inspectors found food in the refrigerators that were past their use-by date as well as dirty containers and freezers in the cramped kitchen. After the report, the pub spokesman said: “We were very disappointed with the findings of the report and instigated an immediate review. This has resulted in changes in kitchen management and a re-appraisal and restatement of polices and procedures in relation to hygiene.” In June 2018 Neil Morrissey opened his second pub ‘The Old Bramshall Inn’ in Bramshall, near Uttoxeter. The pub has a separate dining, bar and lounge areas as well as a revamped garden. Neil said: “The pub ticked all the boxes. We’d been looking at it for a number of years so as soon as it became available a couple of months ago we leaped at it and made the deal. It’s simple really: people want a congenial atmosphere, that’s clean and consistent. They also want a great range of ales, and we have six – including two of our own. The Morrissey Blonde is our highest selling ale at The Plume of Feathers by about 25 percent. We also have a ‘Plume’ bitter served there, so we’ve carried on that theme with our Old Bramshall Inn bitter.”

    Neil Morrissey Bankrupt

    In 2009 Neil said he lost £2.5 million after investing in a string of hotels and pubs. He had bought pubs and hotels around the country including Brown’s Hotel in Laugharne. The company overstretched itself and collapsed forcing Morrissey’s business partner into bankruptcy. He, however, said he wouldn’t file for bankruptcy and intended to pay his creditors in full. He said: “People advise you to take the easy route – it’ll only last a year and you’ll be back up and running. But I just thought there are too many good people who’ve lost their money on these deals, and I wanted to repay them as much as I possibly could. I feel morally obliged. Afterward, I’ll feel better about myself. Now I’m working very, very hard. Every second out there to earn another penny. I don’t sit around and get depressed about things. It’s not my character.”
