Biography
Former BBC Wales announcer turned comedian who after grafting away for some years in small roles in local radio, television and films, created and starred in some of the stand-out hit comedies of the early 21st Century including Human Remains, Marion and Geoff, and The Keith Barret Show.
In Annually Retentive he created a comedy show spoof in the form of a panel game and its behind-the-scenes machinations. He's also a semi-regular guest on QI, Just a Minute and I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue.
