     My name is Jack Duncan. I’m an actor. I live in Leeds. I love my job because I do so many different things.

     Two years ago, for example, I appeared in a TV soap opera about a family from the North of England. I played the part of the family’s neighbor. They filmed the programme here in Leeds. It was great!

     Then, last year I was in a play at the city theatre in Leads. I played the part of a police officer in a detective story. I did that every evening for eight weeks. I was really tired at the end.

     After that I appeared in another TV programme. This one was different. It wasn’t a soap opera, it was a drama. I played the part of a criminal. I enjoyed that, too.

At the beginning of this year, I went to America. It was really exciting! I got a small part in a film called San Francisco. They filmed it in Hollywood. I met a lot of famous actors and actresses. It was fantastic!
