On the show he played the local village doctor who found himself in hot water when his character was in relationship with his seventeen-year-old patient Belle Dingle which cost him his job and his marriage.

Micah’s healthy living and fitness regime makes him look younger than he actually is, with the actor 46-year-old in real life.

Meanwhile, Micah previously played two characters on the much-loved 90s cop drama, The Bill.

He first appeared as Asher Campbell between 2005 and 2006.
