He's one of our best known actor/directors and has worked steadily in the industry since he was a child, starring in hit movies such as Bugsy Malone, The Long Good Friday, and of course, David Lynch's The Elephant Man.
We are honoured that Dexter Fletcher, Bytes' Boy, has accepted our invitation to A Gathering of the Angels: A Tribute and Celebration of the world of David Lynch. He will join co-star Lesley Dunlop (Nurse Nora) in a special The Elephant Man Q&A and discussion.
Dexter's career is nothing short of remarkable. From a child and teen actor (who can forget the brilliant Press Gang) to an adult actor, he took starring roles in massive cult hits such as Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, and Layer Cake blending them with TV gems such as Hotel Babylon, Misfits and I Hate Suzie.

In addition to his acting career, Dexter turned his hand to directing, quickly becoming one of the most well-respected directors in the industry with his signature extravagent flair, turning films such as Eddie the Eagle and Rocketman into huge box office hits, and directing the fun filled action flick Ghosted for Apple TV. Not to mention completing Bohemian Rhapsody when Bryan Singer needed to be replaced. And did we mention he's about to take the helm of the new Sherlock Holmes film with Robert Downey Jnr. and Jude law?
Welcome to A Gathering of the Angels, Dexter Fletcher!
