Biography

Matt Lucas was born on March 5 1974 and raised in Stanmore, Middlesex.  He was educated at the Haberdashers’ Aske’s Boys’ School, which produced fellow Jewish comedians David Baddiel and Sacha Baron Cohen.  He also studied drama at the University of Bristol.

At the age of eighteen Lucas began his comedy career, taking his character Sir Bernard Chumley (a character who would later appear on Little Britain) to the stage.  Spotted in 1992 by Bob Mortimer he was soon a regular fixture on The Smell of Reeves and Mortimer, followed by Shooting Stars, playing George Dawes.

In 1999 Lucas hooked up with friend David Walliams to produce Rock Profiles, a series of popstar spoofs.  Not long afterwards the duo were offered a Radio 4 slot for their new creation, Little Britain.  In 2003 the show transferred to BBC 3, quickly becoming a comedy phenomenon and being promoted to BBC One in 2004. 

Between chuckles Lucas has taken on various acting roles including that of Leigh Bowery in Boy George’s musical Taboo, a venetian duke in Casanova and Sir Oswald in Plunkett and Maclean.  He is now set to release a charity single alongside Peter Kay in 2007.

He was joined to partner, television producer Kevin McGee, in a 2006 civil partnership.
