The lead character of Extras. Andy's dream to become an actor – he left his steady day job at Natwest in Wokingham in order to pursue it - is endlessly frustrated by the fact that his agent Darren Lamb is incompetent, circumstances seem to conspire against him, and the only work he can get is as a film extra. His best friend is fellow extra Maggie Jacobs, but her fervent desire to help, coupled with a lack of tact and subtlety, means that she more often than not causes him just as much trouble. Millman successfully managed to sell a sitcom called When the Whistle Blows, which proves to be a commercial but not a critical success. Andy's nemesis throughout the programme is Greg Lindley-Jones, who also started out as an extra before finding success in a number of productions and becoming a well-respected actor, much to Andy's annoyance.

* BreakTheHaughty: Him being forced to appear on ''Celebrity Big Brother'' just to keep his profile afloat makes him realise that his quest for fame was a mistake. It culminates in him giving a frustrated speech about how celebrity culture is a hollow affair and humanity should be better than that.
* HatesTheJobLovesTheLimelight: Andy hates the fact his sitcom was tampered with by the studio the second he gave it to them, but he stands by the final product if only because he has no other claims to fame. His desperate need to be in the limelight drives him to take on increasingly undignified television parts before resigning himself to appearing on ''Celebrity Big Brother'' alongside several other fame-chasers and has-beens.
