About This Event
As the nations favourite mimic, Rory really needs no introduction what-so-ever. Rory has provided definitive impersonations of PMs and Presidents from Major to Mandela, Blair to Brown, Clinton to Cameron and Bush to Trump. As himself, he’s been presenter, writer, quiz-show host, actor, translator and even (briefly) ballroom dancer. (Strictly, 2011. WTF?)
By the time he’d graduated in 1984, he was already performing on the London stand-up circuit and at his native Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and got his first TV series with the BBC in 1986. In a TV career of over 30 years, he’s won numerous awards, including 3 BAFTAs for his long-running Channel 4 satire series Bremner Bird & Fortune, featuring Rory and the two Johns.
Rory's other TV credits include regularly apprearing on Whose Line is it Anyway, Spitting Image, Have I Got News for You, and Mock the Week.
Rory will be joined by compére supreme Roger Monkhouse who Chortle describes as "A gifted natural, one of the few consummate professionals of the stand-up circuit" And The Guardian describes thus: "His laconic delivery shields an engaging persona and an enquiring mind."
