Ben plays the character of Joe Pritchard in Channel 4′s Shameless.

Sexy, funny and charismatic - that′s Joe.  Although he may initially have everyone falling for his charms, he′s definately not all that he seems.....

Fit and well-built, Joe was a friend of Jamie Maguire′s when they played for The Jockey′s football team in series 6.

He caught the attention of every female when he walked into a room, including Jamie′s sister Mandy.

They got together but it wasn′t long before Joe′s roving eye settled on Jamie′s wife Karen who he had a brief fling with as well as finding time to beat up Mandy.

It wasn′t pretty when the rest of the Maguires found out about the dark side of his and Mandy′s relationship.  Jamie confronted Joe and wasted no time in putting him into a coma.  Not that that has made Joe loosen his hold on Karen...

Series 8 of Shameless is back on our screens soon.

Ben is exclusively booked through Big Bang for all his personal appearances.
