About this Event

Hugh Bonneville is a familiar face to television audiences with credits ranging from The Vicar of Dibley, Doctor Who, and Season 2 of Guy Ritchie’s Netflix series, The Gentlemen. Perhaps best-known for his Golden Globe and Emmy nominated role in Downton Abbey as Robert, Earl of Grantham, Hugh was also in the BAFTA-winning BBC comedies Twenty Twelve, W1A and Twenty Twenty Six. His notable big screen appearances include Notting Hill, The Monument’s Men, and the Downton Abbey and Paddington film franchises.


Hugh has also penned a memoir, Playing Under the Piano, and two children’s books: Rory Sparkes and the Elephant in the Room and Rory Sparkes and the Spy Who Loved Tea, published this October.


In partnership with Norfolk Screen, this event will be chaired by Professor Steve Waters

Copies of Hugh's books (including his memoir) will be available for purchase on the night from Norfolk Children's Book Centre. A book signing will follow the event.
