Let's make this birthday one to remember.

52 years old (Born on July 02, 1972)

Happy Birthday, Lee Boardman! From your unforgettable role as Jez Quigley in "Coronation Street" to your captivating performances in "Rome," you've consistently brought charisma and depth to every character. Your talent for portraying villains we love (and sometimes fear!) has made you a standout on British screens.

Here's hoping this year brings even more success—perhaps fewer villainous roles and more heroic adventures? Or maybe just keep being brilliantly bad; after all, nobody does charmingly sinister quite like you. Wishing you laughter, joy, and plenty of cake today—just make sure it's not poisoned by any former co-stars seeking revenge!
