Perhaps best known for playing DS Ray Carling in the hit TV shows Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes, Dean has recently joined the cast of hit soap Emmerdale, bursting onto the screen as new comer Will Taylor.

In a career spanning more than 20 years Dean's breakthrough role came in 2001 when he secured a lead role in feature film "The Navigators", working alongside respected film director Ken Loach. Over the past decade he has starred in a diverse range of hit TV programmes including Last Tango in Halifax, New Tricks, Silent Witness, Father Brown and The Moorside.

Regarded by many as one of the most prestigious business awards to take place in South Yorkshire, the Barnsley and Rotherham Business Awards celebrate achievements, milestones and the success of businesses and individuals within the region. The awards will return to Magna in Rotherham on October 18 with more than 500 guests expected to take part.
