Top Boy stars a number of familiar faces so who is Dudley O\u2019Shaughnessy and where else do fans recognise him from?<\/p>\n
Irish-Caribbean actor Dudley O\u2019Shaughnessy has been in the hit series since its revival in 2019 on Netflix.<\/p>\n
He is behind Si, a supporting member of the Fields gang who has mostly gone under the radar until season three which debuted on Thursday, September 7.<\/p>\n
Stef (played by Araloyin Oshunremi) has been spending more time with the opposing gang since Sully (Kane \u201cKano\u201d Robinson) murdered his brother Jamie (Micheal Ward) in season two.<\/p>\n
Trying to support him through this difficult time, Si has been there keeping an eye on Stef and giving him advice as well as a gun.<\/p>\n
