JASON SALKEY BIOGRAPHY
Jason is an actor, a regular on screens, small and large over the last twenty odd years. His first big job was a huge commercial campaign for Miller Lite beer UK that made his face instantly recognisable to viewers in the U.K.
Roles in TV shows, commercials and theatre followed. In 1992 he got the part of Harris in Sharpe. A modest part in one of British television’s most cherished shows took up the best part of the next five years, a show that eventually reached around the globe.
That’s probably how you know Jason best, but he has appeared in many films including Memphis Belle, The Russia House, The Steal, Fifth Element, Turn of the Screw, Fairy Tale: A True Story, About a Boy, Going Off Big Time, In America, Road to Guantanamo, The Infidel and Shadowdancer. As well as classic TV shows like The Bill, Bergerac and Boon and many others.
In 2021 his Sharpe memoir was released to great acclaim and is now on it’s third edition. Jason is now the unofficial, go-to source for questions concerning the TV production and cast of Sharpe. While on location he also shot a huge amount of video which has become a series of films documenting life on Sharpe which has entertained battalions of fans across the world at toy-soldier/ war-gaming / military modelling / living history re-enactment events particularly in the US and UK.
