Prowse was educated at King Alfred School, London and the University of Sussex where he studied philosophy, graduating in 2004. Heydon made national news in the UK in 2009 when a secret recording he made of Conservative Politician Alan Duncan in the Houses of Parliament resulted in Duncan's dismissal. As a schoolboy he played Colin Craven in the 1993 film The Secret Garden.
Heydon Prowse is Director and talent with the viral creative agency Don't Panic for whom he has created a number of award winning films. In 2013, Prowse directed his first VICE show, presented by Nimrod Kamer at the Venice Film Festival.
For the United Kingdom general election, 2015, Prowse changed his name to Michael Green via deed poll to stand as an independent candidate against Grant Shapps in the Welwyn Hatfield constituency. The name Michael Green is a pseudonym of Shapps which has attracted controversy. He secured 216 votes in the election, placing sixth out of seven candidates.
Prowse also acted as the presenter for the BBC documentary show The Town That Took on the Taxman shown in January 2016, where businesses in the small Welsh town Crickhowell attempted to minimise their tax burden using the same ways as large corporations.
Prowse is known for prank calling notable figures in politics and entertainment. In February 2017 he duped Number 10 Downing Street claiming the US President wanted to send Theresa May her favourite bouquet as a special gift [1]. On May 2017 he called Jeremy Corbyn who has mistook Prowse for Stormzy and discussed making a grime video together [2].
