He appeared on no fewer than fourteen episodes during the 2005 and 2006 series of the programme. He has also lent his voice to audio Doctor Who. As confirmed by the liner notes for the Big Finish Doctor Who audio story LIVE 34, he played the character of Drew Shahan, an entertainment personality not unlike Collins himself.

He's also written some television episodes, most notably for EastEnders, and.
