I had the distinct pleasure to talk to Tom Prior. Tom trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA), graduating in 2012. His acting work includes “The Theory of Everything” (2014 / Working Title), playing Eddie Redmayne’s son Robert Hawking, “Kingsman: The Secret Service” (2014 / Twentieth Century Fox, Marv Films), and the “Endeavour” (2012) series for ITV.
