Giles was an actor whose career flourished in the 1970s with appearances throughout the decade in several popular television series. One of his earliest credits was playing the role of Johnny Grant in 'The Travelling People' (20th June 1973), an episode of the series Sutherland’s Law.
He was seen as Angus in the very first episode, 'Arrival' (1st September 1975), of the BBC medical soap opera Angels. This was followed by an appearance in the Sykes episode 'Marriage' (28th November 1975) playing a vicar. Giles played McNab in three episodes of the political drama Bill Brand; 'You Wanna Be A Hero, Get Yourself A White Horse' (14th June 1976), 'Anybody’s' (2nd August 1976) and 'Revisions' (9th August 1976).
Just prior to his appearance in Beasts he appeared in the BBC 2 Playhouse production 'The Mind Beyond: Meriel, The Ghost Girl' (29th September 1976) portraying the character of Mr Craig. After his role as the film sound mixer in 'The Dummy' Giles’ appearances on television become less prolific. He had a small role as a man outside a pub in the British thriller film Double Exposure (1977) and played Mr Bolton in the second episode of the second season of the BBC children’s drama Grange Hill (5th January 1979).
