Childhood Star Makes Unexpected Career Change

Richard Holian, best known for his role as young lad Jonny in the popular 1980s children's TV show Jonny Briggs, has made a surprising career change after 26 years away from the spotlight.

From the Small Screen to the Stock Exchange

After his time on Jonny Briggs, Holian went on to have small roles in well-known TV shows such as Emmerdale, All Creatures Great and Small, and Heartbeat. However, he has now left the world of acting behind and embarked on a completely different path.

The former child actor is now working as a stockbroker in London, trading the stage for the stock exchange.

The Legend of Jonny Briggs

Jonny Briggs, the beloved children's programme, aired for two years and consisted of 28 episodes. Based on the books by Joan Eadington, the show followed the life of Jonny, who lived with his family in a terraced house in the north of England.

Although nearly three decades have passed since the show aired, fans will be pleased to see that Holian looks all grown up and successful in his new career.

In addition to his work as a stockbroker, Holian recently took part in the popular game show Pointless, proving that he still has a presence in the entertainment world.
