Lewis Loud

Lewis Loud is the ex-husband of Gina, the father of Paul and the main protagonist of the 2012 ITV Christmas special Panto!.
He is played by English comedian and actor John Bishop, who also plays Dan Lewis.
==History==
He is a DJ who works at Morecambe FM and prepares to make his stage debut as Jack the Lad in the pantomime Dick Whittington at The Grand Theatre in Lancaster, which also stars soap star Tamsin (who is playing Dick), whom Lewis is in a relationship with.
However, when doing dress rehearsal before the first performance that night, Lewis's ex-wife Gina leaves him to care for theirs 13-year-old son Paul while she and her new partner Tony go on holiday after winning a competition. Throughout the film, Lewis has prepare for the pantomime whilst care for Paul, who resents him for spending more time working than being a father to him.
That night during the first half of the pantomime, Paul is impressed by Lewis' performance and they later reconcile after fellow cast member Johnny Darby (who is playing Jack the Lad's mother Dolly the Cook) talks with Lewis about life mistakes. 
In the end, Lewis chooses family over love when he turns down Tamsin's offer of quitting the pantomime to join her in taking part in a reality show in The North Pole, and instead chooses to be in the pantomime and be with Paul and convinces Gina (who decided not to go on holiday after all) to let Paul stay with him at Christmas. Due to Tamsin's departure, another cast member Greg Chip (who had been playing Dick's cat) becomes Dick whilst Paul takes on the role of the cat whilst Gina watches in the audience.
After the pantomime's success, Lewis is last seen the following day doing his radio show whilst Paul watches on. The pair then leave to do the pantomime again but not before playing football together.
