Who is Harry Peacock?
Harry, 42, was born in London. His father is comic actor Trevor Peacock, so he’s followed in his footsteps in the acting world, while his brother Daniel Peacock is also an actor.
Harry appeared on stage at the Royal Court in the play Chicken Soup With Barley in 2011 but is better known for his comic roles on television, particularly in Star Stories, impersonating a host of celebrities.
Harry and Matt Berry, who plays his rival Toast in Toast of London, were nominated for the best comedy breakthrough award.
I just discovered that Harry Peacock is married to Katherine Parkinson, and now I need to re-watch “Toast of London,” if only to hiss at Ray “Bloody” Purchase.
