Danny Seward is a British television actor who was born in Salford, Greater Manchester, England.

He started his career at the age of 15 at the Oldham Theatre Workshop.[1] He landed his first TV role in the soap Emmerdale for 3 episodes playing Greg Cox.[2] Soon after, he won a major television role playing the part of cocky P.C Dean Wishaw in BBC2's award-winning TV series The Cops.[3] The show won two consecutive BAFTA awards for Best Drama Series in 1999 and 2000, plus an RTS award.[4]

During 2001-2005 Seward appeared on the ITV drama series Where The Heart Is, playing Joe Beresford. His character was involved in a musical storyline, which led EMI to sign him to record an album.[5][6]

Seward's debut album Where My Heart Is features the self-penned track "Heart of A Winner", inspired by British boxing champion Ricky Hatton). He subsequently developed the idea for a DVD titled Ricky Hatton - A Life Story. Seward was executive producer for the DVD, which features "Heart Of A Winner" as its title theme, as well as including the music video and interviews with Hatton and Seward.[4]

In December 2005, Seward sang alongside Elaine Paige and John Barrowman in a Christmas concert performed at the Birmingham Symphony Hall with the BBC Symphony Orchestra. The show featured him on piano and was aired on BBC Radio 2 as part of their Christmas season.
