Training and Skills
Formal Training: 
  1. Welsh National College, Music & Drama; Licenciateship, (L.W.C.M.D.)
  2. University of Wales, Post Grad Cert. Ed, (Drama & Education)
Other Skills: 
Having spent nearly 2 years with the BBC Radip Rep Company, my vocal skills are perhaps my main strength, as I can convincingly recreate an authentic regional accent from many parts of the UK.
On TV & film, I play mostly middle-class management roles, i.e. solicitors, accountants, company directors, & senior police officers. I enjoy comedy too!
Additional Information
I have a newly created CDROM showreel (4 minutes) of edited TV highlights of my work, which can be posted if required.
I also have an MP3 voice demo audio file (SEE SHOWREEL BUTTON, ON LEFT), available to be sent via email attachment, on request, or it can accessed via the weblink in this site. Voice demo is also on http://petermcgowan.voice123.com/
My latest film "ROULETTE" won a Bronze award, for short horror/thriller, at the Houston Fim Festival, Texas USA, this year!
