Al Murray

Biography

Stand-up comedian whose best-known persona is "The Pub Landlord", in which guise he won the 1999 Perrier Comedy Award, on his fourth nomination. However these days (thanks in part to his appearance on Hell's Kitchen in 2004) he's perhaps even better known as himself.

Murray is also something of a history buff, something demonstrated when he appeared on a celebrity edition of Time Commanders.

Trivia

He was born on the exact same day as Ed Sanders, 10 May 1968.

He is a direct descendant of William Makepeace Thackeray (of "Vanity Fair" fame) and owns a collection of Thackeray's letters.
