Kristian Bartholomew Hitchen is an English actor, best known for his role in the Ken Loach directed feature Sorry We Missed You for which he received a nomination for best actor at the British Independent Film Awards.
Born in Salford on 28 April 1974, Hitchen studied dancing as a child and tried to break into acting after leaving school but, after meeting his wife, he left the industry and started a plumbing business.
He returned to acting after visiting a retreat just before his 40th birthday and had small roles in 4 O'Clock Club and Coronation Street before landing the part of Ricky in Ken Loach's Sorry We Missed You.
