Biography

Greg is the writer and star of critically lauded Channel 4 sitcom Man Down (2013). After playing Phil Gilbert, the infamously psychotic head of sixth form, in The Inbetweeners (2011) (Channel 4) and its two spin off feature films, Greg went on to appear in BBC Three's Cuckoo (2012) alongside Andy Samberg and Taylor Lautner, which earned him a BAFTA nomination for Best Male Performance in a Comedy Programme. In 2015, Greg began hosting UKTV's new comedy show Taskmaster (2015). Greg has been on two sell-out stand-up tours, including Greg Davies Live: The Back of My Mum's Head (2013). Greg's debut solo stand-up show, Greg Davies: Firing Cheeseballs at a Dog (2011), was nominated for the prestigious Foster's Edinburgh Comedy Award in 2010. The DVDs of both shows were Top 10 bestsellers.

Greg's TV appearances include hosting Would I Lie to You? (2007) (BBC1), Never Mind the Buzzcocks (1996) (BBC Two), and "Live at the Apollo" (BBC One). He has also made guest appearances on "The Royal Variety Show," Room 101 (1994) (BBC One), Mock the Week (2005) (BBC Two), Let's Dance for Comic Relief (2009) (BBC One), The Graham Norton Show (2007) (BBC One), "Live at the Apollo" (BBC One), Frank Skinner's Opinionated (2010) (BBC Two), and 8 Out of 10 Cats (2005) (Channel 4).
