Tom Davis is an actor, best known for his role as DI Sleet in the BBC Three comedy Murder in Successville.
Before being on television, Tom worked as a scaffolder and a stand-up comedian. When his friend was working as a runner on Bo' Selecta, they gave some videos of their own comedy sketches to Leigh Francis, who then invited Tom to appear on the show.[1] Tom appeared in various comedy roles on TV over the following years. In 2015 he co-created and starred in Murder in Successville. This semi-improvised show, in which a celebrity guest must help DI Sleet solve a fictional crime, became a cult hit. In 2016, Tom was named a BAFTA Breakthrough Brit and appeared in the films Free Fire and Prevenge.
He lives in Croydon and supports West Ham United.
