Dennis Waterman Career

Dennis began his acting career in the theatre playing his first role in ‘Night Train for Inverness’ (1960). He appeared in two small stage rôles for the Royal Shakespeare Company’s 1960 season. In 1961, at the age of 13, he played the part of Winthrop Paroo in the Adelphi Theatre production of The Music Man.

In 1962, he starred as William Brown in the BBC TV series William based on the Just William books of Richmal Crompton. In the 1960s he played the role of Oliver Twist in the production of the Lionel Bart musical Oliver! staged at the Mermaid Theatre, London, and appeared on the cast recording released in 1961.

Waterman was a series regular in the 1962 CBS comedy Fair Exchange, playing teenage son Neville Finch. Waterman was in the original cast of Saved, the play written by Edward Bond, and first produced at the Royal Court Theatre in November 1965. He had a major rôle in the 1968 film Up The Junction.

Dennis Waterman was a regular cast member in every season of New Tricks, from 2003 to 2014. After expressing his intent to leave the series during its final season (2015), he appeared in only the first two episodes.

Doolittle in the 2001 London revival of My Fair Lady. Waterman narrated the reality-format television program Bad Lads’ Army and appeared in the 2009 BBC2 miniseries, Moses Jones.

Dennis Waterman Little Britain

Dennis Waterman has been caricatured by David Walliams in the radio and TV comedy series Little Britain, in sketches where he visits his agent (played by Matt Lucas) looking for parts. Most of the jokes in these sketches feature Waterman being extremely small, with common objects being made to appear massive in comparison.

The Waterman caricature is offered – but always declines – respectable parts because he is not allowed to star or to “write the theme tune, sing the theme tune” (rendered as “write da feem toon, sing da feem toon”) of the particular production. This running joke is based on the fact that Waterman sang the theme tunes for at least four of the programs in which he has starred.
