The work for Film and TV all started when Andy was running the Lings Motocross Display Team the predecessor to the Bolddog Lings Team.  The motocross team were often working on family TV shows such as You Bet and Don't Try This at Home.  Andy then decided to take this further and train to become a professional Stunt Performer for Film and TV.
        
To become a professional Stuntman, Andy had to join the Equity Stunt Register - To do this, Andy first had to gain his Equity card and accumulate a number of weeks work "in front of camera".  Andy then had to complete a minimum of six sports disciplines from a choice set out by Equity to a very high National standard set by Equity.  After being accepted on the Stunt Register in 1998, he has had numerous credits for film and TV including:
