Al Murray is a character comedian best known for his unnamed Pub Landlord character. A descendent of author William Makepeace Thackeray, Murray's act is typified by social and political satire. A keen historian, he studied at Oxford before moving into comedy in the early 1990s, enjoying a long association with Harry Hill. Initially performing a comedy sound-effect routine, Murray won the prestigious Perrier Award for his Pub Landlord act in 1999, his fourth successive year of nomination.
