Ardal O’Hanlon

In his new stand-up show, Ardal O’Hanlon laughs in the face of mounting adversity - recession, inclement weather, an aging body, and impending doom. He fearlessly turns the spotlight on surviving relationships, raising children and…the Swiss.

A highly acclaimed stand up, Ardal has toured to sell out audiences internationally (including extensive live work across the US, Canada, Australia, Far East and Europe) and has released two Top ten stand up DVD's (Ardal O'Hanlon Live and Ardal O'Hanlon Live in Dublin). He continues to be one of the most sought after comedians working.

Perhaps best known on TV for his much loved role Father Dougal Maguire in Channel 4’s BAFTA winning series FATHER TED, Ardal’s acclaimed roles also include George Sunday/ Thermoman in MY HERO (BBC 1) and Eamon in BIG BAD WORLD (ITV); with guest leads in DR WHO (BBC1) and Channel 4’s SKINS. Last year, Ardal starred in the theatrical film WIDE OPEN SPACES and as the title lead in the RTE sitcom, VAL FALVEY. Ardal's debut novel The Talk of the Town proved an enormous hit, remaining on the Best Seller charts for more than 6 months. It was recently voted One of the 1001 books to read before you die.
