Jesse Birdsall, a renowned actor hailing from the United Kingdom, has an estimated net worth of $1.3 million as of 2024. With a successful career spanning several decades, he has left an indelible mark on the entertainment industry. Birdsall's talent and versatility have propelled him to great heights in the acting world, allowing him to accumulate substantial wealth over the years. Through his remarkable performances in both film and television, he has captivated audiences and garnered recognition as a true master of his craft. As an esteemed member of the acting community, Birdsall continues to inspire and entertain audiences worldwide.
As a child, he attended the Anna Scher children's theatre school in Islington, and in his teens appeared in Nanette Newman's children's cooking programme Fun Food Factory and in several television plays and series, usually with his trademark rockabilly look. He had one line as an extra ("Watch it mate!") in an episode of Minder from 1980 entitled "Don't Tell Them Willie Boy was Here". In 1982 he starred alongside singer Hazel O'Connor in the TV drama series set in a nightclub called Jangles. He first came to wider public attention in the serial Annika in 1984, his first notable television role. He then subsequently appeared in the films Wish You Were Here (1987), directed by David Leland and co-starring Emily Lloyd, Getting It Right (1989), and Beyond Bedlam (1994). Another notable television role was his portrayal of slick playboy Marcus Tandy in the infamous BBC1 soap opera Eldorado, which ran for just one year from 1992–93 and gained a reputation as one of the biggest television flops of all time. Nonetheless, the amount of coverage the programme received for its perceived low quality and lack of success would gain Birdsall much exposure, and from 1995 to 1999 he played one of the lead characters in another BBC1 programme, the successful Futuristic action/adventure series Bugs.
The son of Penguin Books designer Derek Birdsall, Birdsall attended Hampstead School in north London. He has been married to Only Fools and Horses Actress Gwyneth Strong, with whom he has two children, since 15 July 2000.
In 2002 he appeared in an episode of Murder in Mind, S2xE04, called 'Swansong'.
He guest-starred in Midsomer Murders, playing two separate characters, in the episodes "Market for Murder" and "Small Mercies". He also appeared in several episodes of the ITV police drama The Bill in 2003 as a character named Ron Gregory, and for the same network appeared as a regular in series 3-5 of the popular drama Footballer's Wives.
He had a small role in the BBC One soap opera EastEnders in August 2012, playing John Hewland, jilted fiancé of Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean), in two episodes.
He played the role of Fraser Black in Channel 4 soap Hollyoaks but left the show in spring 2014 following a whodunit storyline in which he was murdered.
