Mr. Copley as Geoffrey in "Billy Liar"
Paul Copley played Dr. Brian Chappel in "Driven."
| Veteran actor Paul Copley lent himself to DRIVEN after director Simon
Cox pleaded with him to play the part. Paul agreed provided they shoot
around his grueling schedule as he was starring on stage in the West
End.
"We had him for two hours at a time, and had to work like lightning, but Paul was fantastic and really supportive considering the budget restraints and how tired he was." -- Simon Cox |
