In 2013, he starred in Michael Winterbottom’s feature film “THE KING OF SOHO” playing real-life London porn baron turned property millionaire Paul Raymond. In 2014, Steve won his fifth BAFTA award for his comedy performance in ‘ALAN PARTRIDGE: WELCOME TO THE PLACES IN MY LIFE’.

Recent feature film credits includes PHILOMENA which he stars in alongside Judi Dench, directed by Stephen Frears. This was released in the UK and the US  in November 2013 and received numerous five- star reviews.
