Martin Freeman is perhaps most familiar to television audiences on both sides of the Atlantic for his role as Tim, one of the employees on the BBC's groundbreaking comedy series The Office (which also airs on BBC America). The cult hit has won over critics and fans with its almost documentary-style look at 9-to-5 life under the fluorescent lights.

A graduate of the Central School of Speech & Drama, Freeman's comic acting skills were also showcased in the Thames Television series Hardware, which was written expressly for him. He recently co-starred in the BBC telefeature Charles II, and has also appeared in numerous other television projects: Linda Green, Marjorie & Gladys, Men Only, The Debt, the Francis Fyfield trilogy, World of Pub, TV to Go, Lock Stock, Bruiser, Casualty, The Hello Girls and This Life.

Freeman has also appeared in the feature film Ali G Indahouse for Working Title, and in several short films, including I Just Want to Kiss You, Round About Five, The Lowdown, Exhaust and Fancy Dress.

His lengthy list of theatrical credits includes starring roles in Kosher Harry for the Royal Court; Jump Mr. Malinoff, Jump for the Soho Theatre; La Dispute for the R.S.C. and the Lyric Hammersmith; Angela Carter's Cinderella for the Lyric Hammersmith; Woman in Black, Dealing with Claire and A Going Concern, all for the Stephen Joseph Theatre; and Mother Courage and Her Children and Volpone, both for the Royal National Theatre; among others.
