About William Beck

Born 1976. William Beck is a British actor, film actor and television actor.

William Beck is a British actor, known for his appearances in the BBC drama series Robin Hood and as Dr. Dylan Keogh in Casualty.

Early life Beck has a family history of employment in medicine and states that his earliest memories are of hospitals. This encouraged him to join medical school, which he later quit, despite maintaining an interest. On quitting medical school, Beck explained, "I didn't give up medical school because I couldn't do it, I just think at that age I got bored with things very quickly." He added that he did not want to waste time and resources after realising he did not want to continue. Two years later, Beck reprised the role and Dylan returned in October 2014. The actor told David Brown of the Radio Times that he found it strange to return to Casualty, but looked forward to portraying the character again.
