One of The Funniest Comedians That Hardly Anyone Has Heard Of…

Being a huge fan of comedy, I am always looking out for new comedians and/or different comedy shows. 

A few years ago I spotted a promotion on the BBC for a new comedy show called “The Peter Serafinowicz Show.”  I had never heard of Peter Serafinowicz before, but I liked the look of the trailer so thought I would give it a chance.

I am so glad I did – it was hilarious!  Peter Serafinowicz is not only a class comedian, but he’s also an incredible impressionist.   During his series, he effortlessly pulled off impersonations of Stan Laurel, Michael Caine, Al Pacino, Robert De Niro & Marlon Brando to name but a few.

What I couldn’t understand is how could I have never heard of or seen someone so funny and so incredibly talented?  After watching the series and doing some research,  I then found out he was the voice of Darth Maul in Star Wars Epsidode I, had appeared in Shaun of The Dead and has appeared in the recently released movie, Couples Retreat.

I am truly hoping that  more and more people will get to recognise his talents, and that he will appear on television on a more regular appearance.

In fact I am that confident of his comedy prowess, that I predict he will be the next big British export to the United States.

To give you a taste of just some of the sketches he has appeared in, please check out some of the Youtube clips below:

Here is a selection of just a small number of impressions that Peter can perform:

Peter Serafinowicz is also a regular user of Twitter, so if you like his work, and want to follow him, his user ID is @serafinowicz.

I really hope you enjoy his work as much as I do!
