Toby Jones, best known for being the voice of Dobby in Harry Potter, has returned to our screens for his role in ITV's Mr Bates vs Post Office, but off screen has famous parents
The familiar face of Toby Jones returned to our screens tonight as his ITV drama Mr Bates vs the Post Office picked up the NTA for Best New Drama. He used the win to champion the cause he embodied on the show, saying: 'It's a great opportunity to review pressure on the government, the new government, to recognise the postmasters before the end of the year.
The cast, alongside Toby, includes Katherine Kelly, Amy Nuttall, Julie Hesmondhalgh, Monica Dolan, Lia Williams, Alex Jennings and Will Mellor. There are four episodes in the series with all of them available to watch on ITVX now. But away from TV fame, Toby is from a star-studded family as both his parents were actors. His late father Freddie Jones is known for his role as Sandy Thomas on the hit ITV soap Emmerdale.
Over a year later in July 2019, Freddie died at the age of 91. Toby's mother Jennifer Jones was also an actress but gave up her career to raise her three sons, Toby, Rupert and Casper.
