History

Nicola Paige was born on February 2, 1988 in Crawley, Sussex, to parents Vanessa and Thomas. Her first experience in front of a camera came as background work on the set of 'Traffic Warden' a short film directed by Benjamin Johns in August 2006. She was sitting with the rest of the background artists when she was picked out of the crowd to play a police woman in the ending scene of the movie. She met with casting director Steve Daly after friends had sent her for an audition for a feature film and wowed the director and casting director with her acting skills. She was given her first role in Mark Jay's feature 'Dolphins' where she played a young glamor model wannabe pre-teen called Shelley. Her next role followed shortly after in the feature 'Rise of the Footsoldier' where she played a barmaid hungry for hero Carlton Leech.
