Adam Buxton is a comedy performer, television and radio presenter, actor, and writer. He first made his name (along with Joe Cornish) with The Adam And Joe Show, a pop culture parody packed review that ran for four series on Channel 4. The showтАЩs revolutionary homemade approach prefigured internet sites like YouTube where new and old тАШAdam and JoeтАЩ clips are now watched by millions.
With their many subsequent TV projects (including Takeover TV, Shock Video and Adam and Joe Go Tokyo!) and radio shows (including shows on XFM and BBC Radio 6 Music), Adam and Joe have continued to build a major cult following as comedy commentators on the absurdities of the media, consumer culture and everyday life.
Independently, Adam has acted in a number of programmes including The Last Chancers(which he co-wrote), The IT Crowd, Time Trumpet and Rush Hour. His most recent film appearances have been in Hot Fuzz and Stardust. Adam also starred in The Persuasionists, a BBC 2 sitcom, which was first aired in January 2010.
AdamтАЩs live show BUG, in which he reviews music videos and examines the absurdities of YouTube comments, attracts a dedicated audience and in 2012 was made into a TV show for Sky Atlantic. In 2014 Adam introduced us to his shed in a one off Christmas special, Adam BuxtonтАЩs Shed of Christmas (Burning Bright). Set in, you guessed it, AdamтАЩs shed, he took us through a list of festive loves, alongside fan letters and a guest appearance from Gaz Coombes of Supergrass.
Amongst other corporate events, Adam has hosted the glamorous BAFTA Video Game Awards, the YouTube Music Awards, the Q Awards, the CADS (creative and design) Awards, and Central Office of Information (COI) Anniversary launch night at the National Film Theatre.
