Bloke at the matchmaking agency (Ep.1)


He's the one who played various roles in Channel 4 programme My New Best Friend. What's the actor's name?

reply

He's called Mark Wootton (I think that's how it's spelt).

He's got a new series coming out on BBC3 called Shirley Ghostman where it appears he will be playing a similar character to the one he played in Nighty Night.

Here's a link:

Here's a link to a video of his part in Nighty Night:

Yes, you are right. It's called High Spirits and I'm really looking forward to it. I saw the ad for it (People say to me, "If you're so psychic why don't you tell us what's going to happen on the lottery?")

His answer was hilarious!!

Many thanks!

The best one though is;

"I feel your shame, I feel your pain, but you're not to blame. YOU DESERVED THAT HOLIDAY! How were you to know dogs couldn't feed themselves for 2 weeks!"

Also, I saw this advert on BBC1 where there were four different shows for BBC1,2,3&4 being advertised. The one for BBC1 was a piss take about some prostitute and my parents said it was Julia Davis! Can someone help me out with this as I cannot find anything out about this show. It was called something "Vice". The woman who I think is Julia Davis is wearing a red wig and glasses. If anyone knows anything about it then please could you post because I am dying to know if it's her.
