Who is James Nesbitt?
The Mike Nesbitt that I think you are referring to, based on the catetory (comedy television programs) is actually Mike Nesmith, a member of the musical group The Monkees, who had a series on American television in the 1960's. The other members of the group were Peter Tork, Mickey Dolenz and Davey Jones. The Monkees had a couple hits, including "I'm a Believer," written by Neil Diamond. Other hits included "Last Train to Clarksville" and "Daydream Believer." Mike is also known as the son of the woman who invented Liquid Paper. (Liquid Paper is not the same as Wite-Out, which was developed later as an improvement of the correction fluid formula.) As the story goes, Mike's mom worked in a typing pool, but she wasn't a great typist. One day as little Mikey was painting using regular kids' tempera paint, she picked up a bottle and painted over an error she made, and -- voila! Liquid Paper was born. Mrs. Nesmith put a bit of Mike's paint in an old nailpolish bottle because it had a built-in brush and took it to work with her. Her "invention" was an instant hit with the other secretaries in the pool. Eventually she ended up selling the formula to the Gillette Corporation for millions of dollars. Mike is now a multi-millionaire, not as the result of his work with Monkees, but because he inherited his mother's stake in the product upon her death. This is not to say that Mike is not a talented guy, or that he did not earn his success. In fact, he has found success in many fields. His video "Elephant Parts" was the first video to win a Grammy. He is also credited with being directly or indirectly responsible (depending on the source) for the development of MTV. He pitched a TV show of music video clips that Time-Warner bought the rights for and eventually turned into MTV. He also started a company that pioneered the idea of selling home videos of TV shows. There are lots of fan sites for Mike and the Monkees which will give you more information.
