He graduated from The Central School of Speech and Drama in 1996 Actor Bio: After starring in Wire in the Blood, he found fame when he starred as Conrad Gates, the captain of Earl's Park football team, in the British TV series, Footballers' wives. Price said he loved the role, driving around in expensive cars, living in mansions and working with a good crew but he was not so keen on the large number of occasions that his butt was shown.Nonetheless, the prolific nudity and onscreen sexual exploits, including full frontal, that his character undertook greatly increased Ben's public profile, and he garnered in particular a large gay fan base through the role. His character was later killed off in the fourth season finale. After leaving the series he did some theatre work. He co-stars in the horror film Blood Trails, which won the audience award for best feature at the Dead by Dawn International Horror Film Festival 2006 in Edinburgh. He starred in Casualty as Corporate Director Nathan Spencer between 2005 and 2007, and was recently voted one of the ten actors most likely to succeed in Hollywood by "Stage and Screen" magazine. Price appeared on the July 2006 cover of Out magazine. He did a guest role as John Lambert in 2009 and is now appearing as Nick Tilsley in the long running TV Soap Opera Coronation street.
