Alastair 'Al' James Hay Murray, born in Stewkley, Buckinghamshire, England, UK on 10th May 1968, is a comedian, actor, musician & writer. Murray was listed in The Observer as one of the 50 funniest acts in British comedy during 2003 then voted as the 16th greatest stand-up comic on Channel 4's 100 Greatest Stand-Ups in 2007. After graduating from St Edmund Hall Oxford University, he started his career in comedy by working with Harry Hill for BBC Radio 4. Al performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival several times, later introducing his 'Pub Landlord' persona, describing him as a "know-all know-nothing blowhard, who knows the answer to every question even though he hasn't been asked any of them". This led to the Sky One sitcom Time Gentlemen Please and the chat show Al Murray's Happy Hour for ITV. He's continued to perform as a stand-up, while being a regular on British TV & radio.
