Gary Lucy

Lucy cut his acting teeth in shows like Grange Hill and Dream Team before getting the role that brought him to public attention, Luke Morgan in Hollyoaks. In this teen soap Lucy undertook a male rape storyline, for which he won the 'Best Newcomer' award at the 2000 British Soap Awards.
Lucy then went on to do three series of the ITV drama Footballers' Wives where he played Kyle Pascoe, a football player for fictional club Earl's Park. This gave him an even higher profile with the British public, partly due to the role and partly due to his offset tabloid escapades. In 2004 Lucy starred alongside Ray Winstone in the ITV drama She's Gone as Micheal Sands.
Whilst playing Kyle Pascoe in Footballers' Wives his on screen mother was Jackie Pascoe Webb, played by Gillian Taylforth. In The Bill, Gillian also plays his Sergeant Nikki Wright.
Gary can currently be seen as DC Will Fletcher in ITV's The Bill, a regular cast member, and has appeared in SkyOne's The Match.
In 2008 ITV commissioned a one-off special called "I love Lucy 2K8." It was essentially a continuation of the popular "An Audience with..." series. Friends, celebrity colleagues and dedicated fans of the actor packed out the Hammersmith Apollo to ask the actor a series of questions. Lucy recounted several showbiz anecdotes, did a dance routine with his "The Bill" colleague Trudie Goodwin, and sang "I got you babe" with Gillian Taylforth.
In 2009 he took part in the one-off ITV drama "Whatever it Takes". In 2009, Gary Lucy resigned from the Bill.[1]
He is taking part as a contestant in the fifth series of ITV's Dancing on Ice. and has been paired with series regular Maria Fillipov
