==Career== Garnham made his west end debut in Eurovision Song Contest spoof Eurobeat, earning positive critical responses, including a Daily Express review, declaring "a stand-out performance from Scott Garnham."<ref>{{cite web|title=Eurobeat - Daily Express|date=12 September 2008 |url=http://www.express.co.uk/entertainment/theatre/61181/Eurovision-gets-the-vote}}</ref> Garnham played Irish entrant Ronan Corr in a performance using an all-white outfit and plentiful use of dry ice.
Following Eurobeat, Garnham obtained the role of Feuilly in the West End production of Les Misérables while also understudying the roles of Enjolras and Marius, a job which won him the accolade of Understudy of the Year 2011.
