Arthur Hughes (born 1992) is a British actor known for his roles as Ryan McDaniel in television series The Innocents[1] and Ruairi Donovan in BBC Radio 4 series The Archers.[2][3] His stage appearances include the role of Laurent in La Cage aux Folles at the Park Theatre, London[4] and Phil in The Solid Life of Sugar Water with Graeae.[5]

Hughes attended Aylesbury Grammar School[3], and graduated in 2013 from the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama.[6] He has radial dysplasia affecting his right arm.[1]

In 2022, Hughes played disability activist Alan Holdsworth in the BBC's Then Barbara Met Alan;[7] The Independent's reviewer said that "Hughes is excellent as the emotionally unstable and tense Holdsworth".[8] In the same year, he took the title role in the Royal Shakespeare Company's production of Richard III,[9][10] The Guardian's reviewer said that "Hughes's Richard is every bit the schemer, dead-eyed and unmoved by the body count he leaves on the way to the throne, but he also has a smarmy mischief about him, delivering news of another dispatched victim in a breezy tone of voice and eking comic asides out of his character's darkness.[11]
