Nathan David Bryon (born 3 July 1991) is a British actor, author, and screenwriter. He gained prominence through his roles as Jamie Bennett in the BBC Three sitcom Some Girls (2012–2014) and Joey Ellis in the ITV sitcom Benidorm (2016–2018).

Career

In June 2019, Puffin published Bryon's first book, Look Up!, conceived jointly with illustrator Dapo Adeola. It won both the overall award and the illustrated book award at the 2020 Waterstones Children's Book Prize. Adeola later complained that, although Bryon had given him full credit for his part in the book's creation, both the book trade and the media minimized the significance of the illustrator's role.

During the week of 24 November 2025, he appeared in Richard Osman's House of Games on BBC2.
