Bio

Kevin Bishop is an English actor and comedian best known for playing a variety of roles in the television comedy series Star Stories, from 2006-2008.

He is also known for starring in the sketch comedy series The Kevin Bishop Show and for his starring role as Richard Royce, a handsome British attorney and the son of the firm's senior partner who might just be interested in Kimmie, especially after he mentions that he likes girls with a "bit of chunk", in the sitcom Super Fun Night.

He started his television career as a teenager in the iconic UK series Grange Hill. Other television appearances include Pie in the Sky, Love Soup, My Family, Peep Show and FM, before Channel 4's award-winning Star Stories, which Bishop co-wrote and starred in.

Further success followed with The Kevin Bishop Show, again for Channel 4, which confirmed Bishop as one of the country's most talented and irreverent performers.

Lead feature film credits include the worldwide hit A Few Best Men, directed by Stephan Elliott, Cedric Klapisch's films L'Auberge Espagnole and Russian Dolls, alongside Romain Duris, Disney's Muppet Treasure Island, Lionsgate's Keith Lemon: The Movie and May I Kill U.

On stage, Bishop played the late comedian Dudley Moore in Pete and Dud: Come Again, as well as Carter in Neil LaBute's Fat Pig in the West End.
