Lee Mead on This Morning - 9 February 2010

Lee Mead had scant chance to talk about the great things that are happening for him career-wise at the moment, as the presenters preferred to concentrate mainly on asking questions about his personal life that he has answered many times before. So, if you're interested in hearing what he's actually up to, read on.

He's currently touring in the title role of Lord Arthur Savile's Crime, a funny and deftly performed adaptation of an Oscar Wilde short story, which marks his dramatic acting debut. It is currently at the Theatre Royal, Brighton and calls at Edinburgh, Blackpool, Manchester, Plymouth, Malvern, Leeds, Worthing and Cardiff before ending its run in Bath on 24 April.

With just a couple of weeks break, Lee's next role is as Fiyero in the hugely popular West End musical 'Wicked' - joining the company on 10 May 2010, he is scheduled to stay until 5 February 2011.

And just announced, he will be playing two concerts in the summer:
- at the Cliffs Pavilion, Southend on 23 May - tickets from http://www.thecliffspavilion.co.uk/wrt-productions_details.asp?pid=3981
and at The Anvil, Basingstoke on 13 June - tickets from http://www.anvilarts.org.uk/whats-on/10/jun/lee-mead

Exciting times ahead!

Lee looks gorgeous in this interview. For those of you moaning anout the content of the interview, he doesn't really say much about anything or have much personality. That's why they have to ask about his wife etc to pad out the interview.

@apollovicky On the contrary, in interviews when he IS asked about his work, he has plenty to say for himself, talking intelligently and with a self-deprecating wit. Lee is known for keeping his private life private, so is never going to be at his most voluble in an interview focusing mainly on his wife!

Lee Mead can't construct a complex sentence. All he ever does is make the shortest reply he can, which means his interviews are boring. Interviewers have to work hard with him. In this interview, they talk about his wife because they covered everyting else!!! One or two word answers are not good enough. He should get a personality.

@apollovicky I'm sure you won't be surprised that I disagree, but I am puzzled as to why you watch his interviews if you find him so boring. You are of course entitled to your opinion but it is just that - YOUR opinion. Personally, I find his personality charming and his interviews far from boring - each to their own.

I really wish Phil and Holly had have interviewed him, I tuned in to hear about his career not his famous wife!

[TheMabsy]

Like many actors, Lee Mead 'comes alive' on stage and is not always comfortable being interviewed; this does not mean he has no personality. He is not in the least big headed but a very modest person with a huge talent..

This was a very poor interview.

[chocobear1987]

@apollovicky well if all you lot do is moan go do something else instead of critising people who have more talent and intelligence then u have put together!

[BonkersBecca1995x]

He is from southend which is tge best!

[Gergbu]

I remember watching this. To those saying Lee is boring etc .. are just plain wrong. I went to the same school as him, was in the year below him. School is called Eastwood (was a high school), in Leigh Essex. He was always fun to talk to and I don't even see what was so bad about this interview?

[Cece221986]

So funny to see the same posters around Lee and Denise videos criticising them. Is there nothing more constructive they can find to do with their time?

[apollovicky]

@emzie21uk

He is good looking but lacks personality and taste. DVO???? LOL

[emzie21uk]

god he is the most beautiful man on this earth... x x

[apollovicky]

@jillcamel98

He did lie about his wedding. It makes it hard to believe him & DVO about when they really got together.? Why is he married to her anyway?

[theofficialgomm]

sweet face!
