RORY
BREMNER
Twenty-five
years ago, Rory Bremner performed his first public impression. Nine years later,
he starred in his first BBC series "Now For Something Else".
Today,
he is widely rated as Britain’s sharpest impressionist – a one-man
opposition party – with his weekly Channel Four show "Bremner, Bird &
Fortune" (Vera Prods) and seasonal 'specials', regularly winning awards as
the best satire on television. He ‘does’ over 100 people, from Tony Blair to
Mohamed al Fayed.
Rory’s appeared in countless comedy shows from "Have
I Got News For You" (HatTrick Prods for BBC TV) to "Whose Line Is It
Anyway?" and has been interviewed more than any other performer by both
"Wogan" and "Parkinson". Rory has recently lent his voice to
"This is Craig Brown" for Radio 4 and tested his driving prowess on
BBC2’s "Top Gear".
Rory appears regularly on "Breakfast With Frost"
(BBC TV), has written and performed the BBC radio series "Some of our
Pilots Are Missing" and writes articles and diaries for numerous
publications.
He has also translated two operas: Kurt Weill’s "Der
Silbersee" and George Bizet’s "Carmen", the latter for a cast
recruited from South African townships who promptly translated the dialogue into
Xhosa so Rory can’t understand it!
