Louiza Patikas

Louiza Patikas (born c.1977) is a British actor, best known for her portrayal of Helen Titchener in the long-running radio drama The Archers. Although she had, as of 2016, played the character for 16 years[1] since she left drama school,[2] she was generally little-known to the public, until her character's involvement in a storyline about domestic abuse and coercive control caught the public imagination.[2][3] Patikas discussed the storyline on BBC Radio 4's Woman's Hour in March 2016.[4]

She also works as a journalist and fashion stylist.[5]

She is married to Jonathan Aris, who she met while making the 2005 ITV comedy drama Planespotting.[5]
