In a TV career of over 30 years, he’s won numerous awards, including 3 BAFTAs for his long-running Channel 4 satire series Bremner Bird & Fortune, featuring Rory and the two Johns.

Rory's other TV credits include regularly apprearing on Whose Line is it Anyway, Spitting Image, Have I Got News for You, and Mock the Week.
