During his time at Cambridge, Thomas was an active member of the Footlights, an amateur theatrical club, where he held the position of Secretary from 2005 to 2006. This period was formative, as he collaborated with fellow future ‘Inbetweeners’ co-star Simon Bird and Footlights alumnus Jonny Sweet, with whom he would later share a flat and creative projects.
Thomas achieved widespread recognition for his role as Simon Cooper in the E4 sitcom ‘The Inbetweeners’, which aired from 2008 to 2010.

Following the conclusion of ‘The Inbetweeners’, Thomas continued his career in television, joining the cast of the Channel 4 comedy-drama series ‘Fresh Meat’ in 2011, where he played Kingsley Owen until 2016. He also reunited with James Buckley, another ‘Inbetweeners’ co-star, for the BBC Two sitcom ‘White Gold’, portraying Martin Lavender from 2017 to 2019. In addition to acting, Thomas has worked as a writer, co-creating and writing for the TV series ‘Chickens’ and contributing to ‘White Gold’.
His career has seen him participate in various other projects, including the comedy film ‘The Festival’ in 2018 and the radio series ‘Proposal’ for BBC Radio 2. Thomas has also made appearances in a range of television shows, taking on contestant roles in ‘Celebrity Mastermind’ (2019) and ‘Taskmaster’ (2019), and participating in panel shows like ‘Would I Lie To You?’ (2022) and ‘Richard Osman’s House of Games’ (2021).
