I was browsing the Internet recently and saw mention of Adrian Lewis Morgan being in Les Miserables. I love musicals and Les Mis is my utmost favourite, just totally adore it. Anyway, I had to find out more so tried searching. The only thing I could find was a few acknowledgements of it - apparently what I did manage to find out was that he was in a production in Bristol in 1999 and he played the part of Marius. Of course, to all of you who don't like musicals, it won't be interesting at all, but I am curious as to his performance in Les Mis. I haven't been able to find anything about him singing and as Les Mis is a musical without dialogue, was wondering if anyone else knew anything about this.

He sings a lot on the show although it seems most of the cast can sing at least to some extent. They should do a musical episode - given they like to push the boundaries.
According to his agency page Adrian is a tenor / baritone and has appeared on stage in:
Way Beyond Blue in the role of Jeff Buckley
Les Miserables as Marius (which you mentioned)
Rent as Roger
Jesus Christ Superstar as annas
As You Like It as Silvius
and
Sweeney Todd as Tobias Ragg
He appears to have done Rent in the West End as well as a USA tour while his time in Les Mis was with the Cameron Mackintosh company.
It was during his time in Les Mis he met Gemma Wardle who was (maybe still is) his partner.

He's a man of many talents!
I did spot Gemma Wardle's name whilst searching - that was what alerted me to the Les Mis connection.
A musical episode of Doctors would be great!
My nephew is playing the part of Marius in Les Mis next month in York - it's a "School Edition", all the cast have to be 19 or under (he's 17). Nothing to do with Doctors, I know, but thought I would mention it.

Well if he can play a part in Les Mis he must be - it's not an "easy" musical to take part in. It's also my favourite and by the way, my nephew played the part of Marius brilliantly in the recent production in York (well, I would say that wouldn't I!) but I'm not just being biased - it was brilliant - the whole cast was so professional.
