Laurence Fox
Laurence Paul Fox (born 26 May 1978) is an English actor, singer-songwriter and guitarist, best known for his leading role as Detective Inspector James Hathaway in the British TV drama series ''Lewis'' from 2006 to 2015.
==Early years and education==
The third of five children〔.〕 of actor James Fox and his wife Mary Elizabeth Piper,〔.〕 His father James was the son of Major Robin Fox, theatrical agent, who married Angela Muriel Darita Worthington, a natural daughter of Frederick Lonsdale.〔.〕 Laurence Fox was born in 1978〔.〕 in Yorkshire.〔.〕 At the age of thirteen he entered Harrow School where, according to him, he was "shy around women, sensitive and a bit naïve".〔.〕 Although he made friends and liked the drama teacher, he hated the school's strict regimen and felt despised and out of place among pupils with titles and wealth. Constantly in trouble for smoking, fighting, going into town and seeing girls, he was eventually expelled a few weeks before his A-levels. According to him, "It was something to do with a girl at a dance. I went back to take the exams, but I wasn't allowed to speak to anyone." In hindsight, Fox has said that his experience at Harrow enabled him to portray "toffs" – the upper class boys looking down on him and whom he disliked – with much insight and cynicism.〔.〕
Despite doing well in his A-level examinations, because of the report that Harrow had written on him, he was unable to obtain a place at any university.〔 After working as a gardener for two years,〔 and a stint as an office worker which he loathed,〔 he discovered that he enjoyed acting and enrolled at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA). During his time there he appeared in numerous theatre productions, including the lead roles of Gregers Werle in Ibsen's ''The Wild Duck'', Marcus Andronicus in ''Titus Andronicus'', and Stephen Daedalus in an adaptation of James Joyce's novel ''Ulysses''.〔.〕 However, he was disappointed to find that he was treated "like a nonce" for being an Old Harrovian. He also made himself more unpopular by being outspoken and taking on roles in his second and third years despite the practice being forbidden by school policy.〔 One of these was his first break into film – the 2001 horror-thriller ''The Hole''. Fox feels that in landing the role his name "probably helped – it's a combination of timing, luck and contacts". Nonetheless, "()he name opens some doors, but then you have to show you can do the job".〔
