NATIONAL PRIDE
James Moore, who plays Ryan, was a winner at the recent NTAS…
It’s been a good few months for James Moore, who has won plaudits for his portrayal of the Dales’ Ryan. And the star has topped it off with a win at the National Television Awards for Best Newcomer!
“It still doesn’t feel real,” revealed the actor the next day on ITV’S This Morning. “The moment when I won the award and the 15 minutes after that are just a blur – I can’t remember any of it!”
It’s strange to think that it’s still only been less than nine months since Ryan first appeared on our screens, given how effortlessly he has managed to become a fixture in the village.
“Yes, I can’t believe it’s been such a short time, but the public seems to have really taken to my character,” grinned James during the interview.
“To have that kind of recognition and appreciation so early on in my career, it essentially means the world to me. It’s absolutely incredible!”
