When controversial teen drama Skins burst onto television screens via E4 on January 25th 2007, it quickly made a huge impact.
Serving up challenging subjects including eating disorders, drugs and bullying along with a side portion of good old fashioned teen angst, the show had garnered a cult following by the end of the first series.
Set in Bristol and written by father-and-son duo Bryan Elsley and Jamie Brittain, Skins documented life for a group of hormone-raging teenagers going through Sixth Form.
The sitcom's brave storylines clearly provided key actors with a blistering showreel - something that would stand them in good stead over the coming decade.
Mitch stayed in the show until the end of the second series, when the producers started afresh with an almost entirely new cast.
In 2009, Mitch went on to appear in the musical Never Forget, based on the songs of boyband Take That. He played stripper Dirty Harry alongside Michelle Collins.

In 2014, he appeared as Ben in Nightlight[8] and as Steven Stevens in Behaving Badly, the film adaptation of Ric Browde's novel While I'm Dead Feed the Dog.
Mitch joined the cast of Casualty as Mickey Ellisson in 2017.
At the time, he said: 'I'm having such a wonderful time filming Casualty. I'm very excited for people to meet Mickey and for them to feel the difficulties that he endures in his life. I'm ever so grateful for this opportunity; it really has been a fantastic experience.'
