His series Rory Bremner…Who Else? and Bremner, Bird & Fortune, are among the sharpest satire shows on television. Rory frequently appears in one-off topical specials, such as My Government and Between Iraq and a Hard Place. He is also a regular on BBC’s Mock the Week.

Rory has hosted Breakfast with Frost, written diaries for the Daily Telegraph and The New Statesman, and translated Kurt Weill’s Der Silbersee for Broomhill Opera. He even acheived chart-topping status with his single 19 Not Out (performed with the BBC cricket commentary team).
