Rich Fulcher - The Mighty Boosh

Fulcher has played many types of characters but is perhaps best known for playing dull-witted, comic goons. He is probably most famous for his portrayal of Bob Fossil in The Mighty Boosh stage, radio and television shows, as well as playing many other characters, including the Ape of Death and Lester Corncrake. He is also the only writer to provide additional material for the TV series apart from the major writers Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt. Fulcher has a variety of running gags on The Mighty Boosh: he often plays very short characters, performing them on his knees, and when he plays various cockney characters he can be heard muttering, "I'm a cockney, I'm a cockney..." His Boosh characters often die horribly, being grated or otherwise murdered, and as this happens Fulcher will sometimes say, "A little to the left!". It was also in the Mighty Boosh that he met Matt Berry, who played Dixon Bainbridge. In the documentary A Journey Through Time and Space he was said to be the only person who plays a "watered down version of himself". Fulcher claims that after portraying 'Tommy Nooka' people came up to him in the street and demanded him to 'do Tommy'.
