Alan Gordon Partridge OBE (Honour Removed) is a fictional radio and television presenter portrayed by English comedian Steve Coogan and invented by Coogan, Armando Iannucci, Stewart Lee and Richard Herring for the BBC Radio 4 programme On The Hour. A parody of both sports commentators and chat show presenters, among others, the character has appeared in two radio series, three television series and numerous TV and radio specials, including appearances on BBC's Comic Relief, which have followed the rise and fall of his career.

Whereas many of his personality defects are apparent in his appearances in shows such as The Day Today and Knowing Me, Knowing You with Alan Partridge, it is largely from I'm Alan Partridge onwards that his creators began to explore his personality in depth, and most of the observations that follow originated in that show.

Blackwood presented the UK version of Singled Out on Channel 5 and, in 1999, presented his own show called The Richard Blackwood Show, which was commercially and critically unsuccessful.

Blackwood scored a UK #3 hit single in 2000, with the song 'Mama Who Da Man', based on Mama Used to Say by his uncle Junior. The 200,000+ selling hit single was written and produced by Lucas Secon (Pussycat Dolls, Jordin Sparks, Sugababes) and Mickey P.

Blackwood appeared on Brass Eye in 2001, during which he was tricked into saying that Internet paedophiles can make computer keyboards emit noxious fumes in order to subdue children. Blackwood even sniffed a keyboard and claimed it made him feel "suggestible". Blackwood also warned watching parents that exposure to the fumes would make their children "smell like hammers". He had acting appearances in Holby City in 2003 and played the title character in the 2002 television series Ed Stone Is Dead. During May 2003, Blackwood appeared in Channel 5's Celebrity Detox Camp, a highlight of which was his self-administered coffee enema, which involved him being filmed "pumping 18 litres of coffee solution through his anus into [his] stomach" In March 2007, he acted in the critically unsuccessful Bollywood film Don't Stop Dreaming. In 2005, Blackwood appeared in the critically maligned Princes of Comedii DVD release, his involvement being described as "desperate" by DVD Times reviewer Eamonn McCusker.

Nigel Derek Harman (born 11 August 1973) is an English actor, most famous for his role as Dennis Rickman in the UK soap opera EastEnders. He has worked extensively in theatre, with the stage being described as his "first love". He most recently starred in the final series of Hotel Babylon.

Nigel grew up in Woldingham, Surrey and was educated at Dulwich College. However, he found school difficult: "I was never comfortable sitting down. I always wanted to get involved in something, not just learn and write. I was in so much trouble I had my own desk in detention." His father was a bank manager, but also involved in amateur dramatics including work with CODA (Croydon operatic and Dramatic Association), an interest which was passed on to Nigel. His mother was also involved in the productions; though she died when Nigel was 18.
