Best known for the BBC Three series How Not to Live Your Life, which he wrote and starred in as Don Danbury, Dan Clark’s first television appearance was in a December 1996 episode of Only Fools and Horses, playing a character called Scott.

The following year he formed the Electric Eel sketch group with Adam G Goodwin and Cliff Kelly, making their Edinburgh debut in 1998.

In 1999, the trio made a Comedy Lab pilot Channel Four entitled Roy Dance Is Dead, about a group of estate agents, which led to a full series – The Estate Agents – in 2002.

His other credits include The Mighty Boosh – where he played Johnny Two Hats – French & Saunders, My Family and the ITV comedy drama series The Complete Guide to Parenting.

How Not to Live Your Life started life as a series of shorts on the Paramount Comedy Channel, where he would act out lists such as ‘Ten things you shouldn't wear on a date’, which led to the BBC commission. A pilot was made in 2007; with the first full series airing in autumn 2008, and the second in autumn 2009. A third series has been commissioned for 2010.

Effortlessly inviting, Dan Clark genuinely engages with the audience, building a natural rapport as he drifts seamlessly between unaffected banter and material. It may not be the most challenging set, nor boast the punchiest gags, but it’s a warmly witty collection of observations that are well-made and skilfully exploited.

His personality is his biggest asset; he first appears the epitome of laid-back metrosexual cool, but it’s laced with a disarmingly self-effacing wit that only enhancing his underplayed charisma. It would be a hard heart not to warm to this charming man, and he didn’t break a sweat in getting the crowd chuckling throughout.
