Biographie

Used to work as a banker in Canary Wharf, London.

Married The Office (2001) actress Lucy Davis on the 9th December 2006 at St. Paul's Cathedral. Normally reserved for royal weddings (King Charles III and Princess Diana were wed there) Davis and Yeoman were permitted to marry there as Davis' father, comedian Jasper Carrott, was awarded an OBE in the New Year's Honours in 2002.

He was raised in Chepstow, Monmouthshire, Wales. He speaks intermediate Welsh, A-level French and German.

Not only did Owain participate in rugby, rowing and hockey at college and university level, but he also represented Wales in Hockey.

His father, Mike Yeoman, is a nuclear physicist. His mother is Hilary Yeoman.

From an actor's point of view, you never really like to hope that anything will go beyond the pilot. I'd always say to my agent every time I filmed a pilot, 'Great! Well, I'll see you at pilot season.'
