Pete may have left the stage, but in Soho, he’s still very much in the limelight. At 60, he carries the charisma of a man who’s spent a lifetime capturing hearts, even if his theatre days are now behind him. Retirement doesn’t mean quiet for Pete—he’s often seen at his favourite haunts, The Duck or The King of Bohemia, where his easy charm and quick wit make him a mainstay among Soho’s eclectic crowd. Known for “pleasing the ladies,” Pete’s reputation isn’t one he’s in any rush to shed; if anything, he revels in the attention it brings.

Built lean and sturdy, Pete’s physique is testament to years of stage work—each movement deliberate, with the grace of someone who’s accustomed to holding an audience. He stands at 5’8″, with short black hair, greying naturally at the temples in a way that only seems to add to his appeal. His hazel eyes are warm and knowing, a twinkle of mischief never too far from the surface, and his casual style—usually a well-loved T-shirt and jeans—shows a man entirely at ease in his own skin.

Pete’s allure lies in his authenticity. He has no airs, no pretense, just an undeniable magnetism that draws people in. His comedy chops and knack for storytelling make him a Soho favourite; he can shift a room’s energy with just a few well-timed words. Women, in particular, are drawn to him, appreciating the confidence and touch of mystery that lingers about him—a retired actor who’s never quite left the role of Soho’s beloved rogue.

In a city obsessed with youth and reinvention, Pete is a breath of fresh air—a man who embraces exactly who he is, keeping his Soho days alive with laughter, charm, and a subtle nod to the allure that never left him.
