Kris Marshall: Actors & SKIN

Born in Bath Somerset, Kristopher (Kris) Marshall lived in several countries when he was growing up due to his father's role as a Royal Air Force navigator.  Although the family eventually settled back in England, they also lived in both Canada and Hong Kong.  Marshall's struggle with grades in boarding school actually played a role in his future acting career.  Low grades led his family to enroll him at the Redroofs Theatre School in Maidenhead, Berkshire.  This led to various theatre roles and eventually auditions for television and film. 

Funland (2005)

Marshall's first nude scene was in the 2005 mini-series Funland.   I haven't seen it, but after reading a bit about it, it's certainly on my 'to watch' list.  If you check out the clip, it appears Marshall has some frontal exposure.  If you look closely though, Marshall's either wearing a modesty pouch, or they  blurred out Marshall's meat.  It's like they used the computer Paint program and used the eraser in the scene.

Catwalk Dogs (2007)

'When his wife leaves him and moves in with a neighbour, Michael takes comfort in his dog Archie. With the help of his local dog club, he sets out to win her back'

A Few Best Men (2011)

'A groom and his three best men travel to the Australian outback for a wedding'

Sandition (2019-2022)

Sanditon is a British historical drama television series adapted by Andrew Davies from an unfinished manuscript by Jane Austen.  Given Austen's work wasn't finished, her story is used mostly in the series first episode.   I'm not sure where to find this show, but it's another of Marshall's projects that I'd love to check out.
