Bernard went to grammar school in Bolton, then began performing by singing in folk clubs. He became involved with documentaries produced at the new and dynamic Octagon theatre in Bolton. This carried on into plays, and then the Ken Campbell Roadshow, where the acting and singing combined. Here he wrote such gems as the Ballad of Knocking Nelly. From here, the acting and singing have formed equal parts of his career.
