Al Murray at Bristol Hippodrome

Sunday, 18 October, 2009

Al is one of the most recognisable and successful comics in the UK with his alter-ego, The Pub Landlord.

His British Comedy Award Winning ITV1 series Al Murray’s Happy Hour has delighted both viewers and critics alike with his no nonsense treatment of his celebrity guests. He is also one of the few stand-up comedians to be asked by ITV to perform two Audience With shows. Al’s sitcom Time Gentlemen Please (Sky One) has become something of a modern day cult classic and his new series, Al Murray’s Multiple Personality Disorder (ITV1) sees him introduce a whole host of new characters and demonstrate his vast comedic range.

Al’s other TV appearances as The Pub Landlord includes three appearances on The Royal Variety Performance (ITV1), hosting both Live At The Apollo (BBC1) and Edinburgh and Beyond (Paramount Comedy Channel) and his edgy quiz show Fact Hunt (ITV1).

Out of character, Al has hosted Have I Got News For You (BBC1) and also presented The Road To Berlin, a 10 episode documentary series on WWII for Discovery.

Al’s huge stand-up tours have made him one of the most popular live comedy acts in the country, with sell out shows including the O2 Arena. He won the Perrier Award (after a record four successive nominations) and secured Olivier Award nominations for both of his celebrated sell-out West End runs. Internationally, Al has forged an enviable reputation with numerous sell-out runs in Melbourne, Sydney, Montreal and New Zealand.
