Kevin Harrington as Kevin Findlay

Kevin Findlay

Kevin Findlay runs the "Come On Inn Caravan Park", which is next door to Laura's house and owned by Bob Jelly. Kevin also works for the Shire as a self-taught handyman, which means that he can turn up anywhere, at any time and complete a job with any level of ineptitude. Kevin's wife, Lucy, is not around, due to extenuating circumstances. He is the sole carer for his son Trevor and he's a good dad, although perhaps not conventionally so.

Kevin Harrington's acting credits are extremely diverse. They start with street theatre, move into comedy venues, and cover theatre, television and radio. Alongside them are writing credits for various media. Kevin's many theatre roles include A Fortunate Life, Dealers Choice and After Dinner for The Melbourne Theatre Company. A highlight was being nominated for a Green Room Award for Aftershocks, a play based upon interviews of the experiences of survivors of the Newcastle earthquake. His television credits include The Man From Snowy River, Mercury, Shortwave, State Coroner and Blue Heelers. Recently Kevin has been presenting the TT FM Breakfast Radio Show. He is also currently writing a play called Chook.

'We are both pretty average handymen! He's funny, sociable, honest, a good father to his son, Trevor. He's also fairly naive and takes people at face value." -Kevin Harrington.
