He has expressed a desire to take his law aspirations further after completing his degree, but has encountered problems with many law firms requiring A-level results which, due to his acting experiences when younger, he lacks.

Christopher took part in a celebrity version of TV show Total Wipeout which aired on 2 January 2010.
