Who is Calum MacPherson?

Calum MacPherson is a British character actor. His earliest on-stage experiences were gained in various Cambridge bands playing drums and gigging weekly on the busy Pub and College circuit... He trained at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art in London in the early 80's, but upon graduating decided to return to music, spending the next few years touring in the UK and Europe with various bands....
