Stephen became an actor in 1984 after 3 years of training at Arts Educational Schools in London; he spent the first 6 months of his career touring round London parks and schools in "Robin Hood & The Tree Trick" which was quickly followed by his first film role as Moose in the cult film "My Beautiful Laundrette".After a few years working in Theatre, Commercials and supporting roles on TV he joined the cast of fledgling comedy "Birds of a Feather" as Dave, the lover of Sharon (Pauline Quirke).

Then there were a couple of years getting great roles on British TV, in the likes of "The Hot Dog Wars", "Dangerfield" and "Kavanagh QC" and "Our Friends in the North" opposite Malcolm McDowell and Daniel Craig.His movie career was moving alongside this at quite a pace with roles opposite Timothy Dalton in "The Beautician and the Beast", Robert Englund in "The Killer Tongue" and Richard Harris in "Savage Hearts".In 1996 his agent set up a meeting on a small low budget movie with an unknown director named Guy Ritchie; Guy offered him the role of Nick the Greek in his movie "Lock Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels". 3 years later the film it was released and became the biggest British movie in the last 20 years and launched the careers of Nick Moran, Vinnie Jones, Guy Ritchie, Jason Statham, and Mathew Vaughn."Lock Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels" led on to more movies and Hollywood started knocking on the door. Alan Parker had him do a small role in "Angela's Ashes", Philip Kaufman asked him to play Bouchon in "Quills" alongside Kate Winslett, Michael Caine, Joaquin Phoenix and Geoffrey Rush. Richard Eyre called on him twice, for "Iris" opposite Judy Dench and in "Complete Female Stage Beauty" with Clare Danes.
