Luke James Tittensor is Elliott’s twin brother, friend, and colleague. He graduated from the same school as Elliott and debuted on the same TV show “Shameless”. They both portrayed the same hero Carl. But Luke left the show after the first several episodes.
Nevertheless, he continued making a career in the entertainment world. He landed a role in the British long-term soap opera “Emmerdale”. Luke joined the cast of the show in 2003 as Daz Eden. His character is a troubled teenager, who started by stealing cars and ended up having a daughter with his love interest Debbie (Charley Webb).
Luke’s play in “Emmerdale” was great and brought him the first movie nominations at the Soap Awards – as the best newcomer and for the best dramatic performance.
Unfortunately, in 2009 Luke was fired from the show. The reason was the court process against him. He had a conflict with a 16-year-old teenager, whom the soap opera star fractured the jaw. The teenager, whose name is undisclosed, was standing near the road when he was hurt by a pack of empty beverage jars. After that Luke went out of the car and hit the teenager several times. He kicked him in the face with his foot after the teen fell down.
As a result, Luke had to take responsibility for his actions. He was sentenced to 9 months of jail and a penalty of £1,000. He also had to complete 200 hours of unpaid job.
After Luke had admitted his fault, he was asked to leave Emmerdale set. The last episode featuring him aired on the 24th of April, 2009.
Fortunately, Elliott’s twin didn’t stop acting. Among his film credits, there are such gems as the series “Waterloo Road” and the drama film “Madame Bovary” with Mia Wasikowska as the main cast.
In 2022 he had a chance to share the film set with his twin brother again. He portrayed Ser Arryk Cargyll in “House of the Dragon”. His brother Elliott acted as his screen twin Erryk. It’s interesting to know, that Luke replaced his brother in the final episode of Season 1 “The Black Queen”. The reason was Elliott’s contact with COVID-19 affected the person. He had to stay in quarantine for 2 weeks.
Luke is unmarried as of 2022.
