THE son of award-winning screenwriter Frank Cottrell Boyce is bidding to become an MP in the forthcoming General Election.
Aidan Cottrell Boyce has been named by the Green Party as its candidate for Watford.
He attended St Edward’s Catholic College in West Derby before graduating from Bristol University in 2009.
Aidan, whose dad’s early career included writing a column for Living Marxism before he moved into TV, films, novels and scripting the opening of the London Olympics, is one of seven children.
The Liverpool born 27-year-old will contest the seat against Conservative MP Richard Harrington, Watford Mayor and Lib Dem Dorothy Thornhill, Labour's Matt Turmaine and UKIP’s Nick Lincoln on May 7.
When Aidan isn’t researching a doctoral thesis in divinity at Cambridge,
he can be found teaching at Camden Girl’s School in North London.
