Early life and personal

Hollie Chapman has four younger siblings. She gained 3 As and a B at A-Level, a 2:1 from Southampton University and an MSc in Aerospace Engineering from Felpersham University.

(But Felpersham is a fictional town in the BBC Radio 4 soap, the Archers!). After a run of rejections, Hollie landed her current job, a development engineer with aircraft equipment supplier Ramflight, in October 2012. But by January 2013 she didn’t feel like the role was stretching her and she wasn’t being given enough responsibility. Hollie can sing and play the piano and loves horses.

She was trained in acting at the Sylvia Young Theatre School in London.

Career as an actress

Theatre roles

Around 1996 she appeared as Tessie in a West End production of Annie.

Other theatre roles:

  • The Sound of Music as Maria
  • Annie (village production) - title role
  • Whistle Down the Wind (West End production)
  • Smike.
  • Film roles

    She got her first film or TV role in 2001, in an episode of the UK TV serial Holby City.

    In 2002 she played in the Channel 5 TV serial Don't Blame Me (or Don't Blame the Koalas), regularly appearing as Gemma King, a lovable and arrogant English girl who goes with her brother and mother to Australia. This is arguably her greatest work to date.

    In 2006 she was the voice of the soft puppet Cuddle in Softies, a pre-school TV-series. Softies (aired since 2003) is a TV serial with 80 episodes. Each episode has a duration of 5 minutes.
