Timeline
The 2015 play, Violence and Son, by Gary Owen is about a Welsh 17 year-old boy whose mother recently passed away from cancer. He is forced to live with his biological father, Rick (Jason Hughes). The plot thickens when he meets Jen, a girl he meets in college who shares a passion for Doctor Who with him. However, she already has a boyfriend, a rugby player called Jorden.
Hughes played in a band, Butterfly Macqueen, playing guitar and singing backup vocals. The band last performed in Brighton on 12 February 2009 at the opening of the American Music Club.
In 2005, Hughes began starring in the murder mystery television series Midsomer Murders as Detective Sergeant Ben Jones. The show revolves around two detectives who solve gory and unique murders amongst the tranquil setting of Midsomer County. Hughes was originally told to speak in an English accent as his Welsh accent did not fit the character criteria. Hughes was aware of the show's repertoire after watching a few episodes and he knew the standards the directors were looking for. In the years prior to the role, Hughes had had a 2nd child and was shooting a film in Ireland where all his income went into paying bills. After feeling "irresponsible" and "letting myself, wife and children down" Hughes was reluctant when his agent spoke to him about an interview for Midsomer Murders which gave him 10 months a year of work; he described it as a "gift from the angels". After 2 years in this role, Hughes had a steady pay cheque, which caused him to sign-up for another 2 years, then another three. His 7 years of acting in Midsomer influenced Hughes’s acting by learning technical language and getting used to the lines and formats of scripts. In 2013, he left Midsomer Murders but returned for one episode of Series 19 in 2017.
Hughes later went on to study drama at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art and moved in with Sheen and Hywel Simons. Hughes went on to play in the 1999 production of Look Back in Anger with Sheen at the National Youth Theatre and Caligula at the Donmar.
In 1999, Hughes played Ralph Clark in Our Country's Good. Clark is the second lieutenant who is ordered to gather a group of negative and demoralized convicts into a cast that is able to re-enact Farquhar’s The Performing Officer. He played Cliff in a 1999 production of Look Back in Anger.
Hughes' first big role was lawyer Warren Jones in This Life which aired from 1996 – 1997. It revolves around a group of posh, badly behaved, young lawyers who end up emotionally detached from each other usually due to sex. It was the UK’s hottest drama show of the 1990s and the show won five awards including the Royal Television Society’s award for best drama. Hughes’s character had an impact on the gay community since his character is portrayed as homosexual, causing young gay men to write letters to Hughes about their stories of coming out to their families.
His biggest inspirations growing up were Welsh actors Anthony Hopkins and Michael Sheen. Hughes studied drama at in the National Youth Theatre of Wales where he met Sheen in the summer of 1987. Hughes and Sheen lived in the same halls of residence where they became close friends. They were both atypical to acting, coming from a sports background and liked music; Hughes had learnt guitar and piano earlier. He also met actors Ruth Jones, Rob Brydon and Hywel Simons; Simons was a School friend of Sheen's.
