As Luck Would Have It

Derek Jacobis life has been devoted to acting, since his stage debut at the age of seven, in a local library production of The Prince and the Swineherd. Cast as the National Youth Theatres Hamlet during his final year at school, Derek won a scholarship to Cambridge, where he studied and acted alongside other future acting greats. He has since starred in roles ranging from the lead in I, Claudius to Hitler in Inside the Third Reich.
