Ncuti, 27, who plays the inimitable Eric Effiong in the show, revealed that life hasn’t always been easy when acting jobs were hard to come by.
Ncuti also shared the moment he realised he was homeless, explaining: ‘One friend gave me money towards paying off the prior month’s rent and offered to let me move into their spare room rent free for a while.‘Great, I thought. An opportunity to get back on my feet and start paying people back. On moving-in day, he changed his mind.‘As I was standing on the street with my suitcases, one thought came into my head: “I’m homeless.
‘To the outside world everything seemed fine,’ he explained. ‘I was temping at Harrods. I’d wake up from the double bed I shared with my best friend, leave the house without a hair out of place in a slick-looking trench coat and polished brogues. ‘I would get compliments for looking so presentable. When I lost weight due to eating only one meal a day, people told me how lean and healthy I looked.
