Michael Joseph Pennington, Sr., better known as Johnny Vegas (born 5 September 1970), is an English actor and comedian, known for his angry rants, surreal humour, portly figure and high husky voice.
His television roles have included playing drug dealer Moz in the BBC black comedy Ideal. Vegas has also appeared in comedy panel shows such as QI and 8 Out of 10 Cats.
Vegas was born in Thatto Heath, St Helens, Lancashire, the youngest of four children of Laurence and Patricia Pennington. He has two older brothers (Robert and Mark) and an older sister (Catharine). He was brought up as a Roman Catholic. At the age of eleven, he attended St Joseph's College in Upholland, a Roman Catholic boarding-school seminary, to train for the priesthood, but came back homesick after four terms. He also attended West Park School, Alder Hey Road, St Helens.
After studying art and ceramics at Middlesex University for three years and gaining a third class degree, Vegas returned to Thatto Heath and took various short-term jobs including working in an Argos warehouse, selling boiler insurance door-to-door and packing bottles of Jif in a factory, before eventually becoming a barman at the Brown Edge pub in Thatto Heath.

Plot: A documentary film crew captures the humorous, raunchy and surprisingly candid innards of a dysfunctional adult film production. With an ensemble cast of misfit actors in tow, the clueless and self absorbed director, Milo (Stephen Sorrentino), has brought his best friend, the unscrupulously slimy veteran adult film star Johnny Vegas (Bruce Hammond), out of retirement for one last chance at winning the adult film industry's best picture award. But before Milo can bring home the coveted Golden Woody that has eluded him his whole career, he must endure incompetence during the production of what he feels should be his crowning masterpiece.

Some moments from the Series F episode "Fight or Flight" of the wonderful British panel show QI. Johnny Vegas is seen by some fans as being one of the more annoying panellists, but for his hilarious showing here he definitely deserves more respect. It's a shame that practically everything in this video is only in the extended cut version, QI XL. A conversation about pigeons wanders onto Johnny's dream about flying. QImaster Stephen Fry makes a callback to Series D episode "Divination", which catches Johnny unawares and leads to a stunning self-revelation.

Maniac in a Suitcase Giving away a prize to a lucky audience member, Rich reminisces about schoolday bags and realises how much work he has got to do to relearn his 11 old stand up shows for his insane attempt to do them all at the Leicester Square Theatre in August and September. His guest is a man who has done Chekov, Dickens and Celebrity Juice, Johnny Vegas. It’s a truly fascinating discussion about the duality of the stand up and where a Johnny ends and Michael Pennington begins. Michael discusses the lengths that Johnny would push him to and his total commitment to being a dog on stage, whether contentment and success mean the death of the character, how to make your own audience out of balloons, why he got the worst degree in his year at University and how he got his revenge, how ...
