Richard Ellef Ayoade (/aɪ.ɔːˈɑːdeɪ/ eye-awe-AH-day, born 12 June 1977) is an English actor, writer, TV presenter, and director. He is best known as Maurice Moss in The IT Crowd — for which he won the 2014 BAFTA for Best Male Comedy Performance — and as Dean Learner in Garth Marenghi's Darkplace.[1] He has directed films such as Submarine, The Double, starring Jesse Eisenberg, and various music videos for bands such as Arctic Monkeys, Vampire Weekend, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Kasabian. Ayoade has often worked alongside Noel Fielding, Julian Barratt, Matt Berry, and Rich Fulcher in shows such as The Mighty Boosh and Nathan Barley, is a team captain on panel show Was It Something I Said? and presents the factual show Gadget Man.[2][3]

Early life and education

Ayoade was born in Hammersmith, London,[4] to Layide Ade Laditi Ayoade, a Nigerian father, and Dagny Amalie (née Baassuik), a Norwegian mother.[5][6][7][8] The family moved to Ipswich in Suffolk when he was young.[1] His name "Ayoade" means "The Blessed Crown" or "Joy of the Crown" in the Yoruba language.[9]

Ayoade studied at St. Joseph's College[10] in Ipswich and later read law at St Catharine's College, Cambridge (1995–1998), where he won the Martin Steele Prize for play production[11] and was president of the Footlights from 1997 to 1998.[12] Ayoade studied law, and says that his parents would not approve of studies considered to be of the "Regency era,"[13] adding that "a non-vocational degree seemed such an outlandish indulgence."[14] Ayoade states that the law is no longer a viable "fall back" for him and that he would need to "go back to square one."[15]

Career

While in Footlights, Ayoade acted in and wrote many shows. He and Footlights vice-president John Oliver wrote two pantomimes together: Sleeping Beauty, and Grimm Fairy Tales. Ayoade acted in both Footlights' 1997 and 1998 touring shows: Emotional Baggage and Between a Rock and a Hard Place (directed by Cal McCrystal).[16]

Garth Marenghi

Ayoade co-wrote the stage show Garth Marenghi's Fright Knight with Matthew Holness, whom he also met at the Footlights, appearing in the show at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2000 where it was nominated for a Perrier Award.[13] In 2001, he won the Perrier Comedy Award[17] for co-writing and performing in Garth Marenghi's Netherhead, the sequel to Fright Knight.

In 2004, Ayoade and Holness took the Marenghi character to Channel 4, creating the spoof horror comedy series Garth Marenghi's Darkplace. He directed and also appeared as Dean Learner, Garth's publisher, who plays Thornton Reed, a hospital administrator who bears a trademark shotgun and answers to hospital boss "Won Ton". Ayoade's Darkplace character, Dean Learner, was resurrected in 2006 to host a comedy chat show, Man to Man with Dean Learner, on Channel 4. The different guests were played each week by Holness.

The Mighty Boosh

In The Boosh radio series Richard played the part of Tommy Nookah in the second episode, Jungle, originally aired on 23 October 2001. Ayoade was part of the original cast of Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding's The Mighty Boosh: he was selected to play the role of dangerous villain Dixon Bainbridge. However, by the time the radio series transferred to television he was under contract by Channel 4 and was only able to act in the pilot before leaving the Boosh. The part was taken by fellow Darkplace actor and eventual IT Crowd costar Matt Berry. He later returned in the second series, to play the part of the belligerent shaman Saboo, where he improvised the line "an erotic adventurer of the most deranged kind" when describing Kirk, a fellow shaman played by Noel Fielding's girlfriend's nephew. Ayoade continued his association with The Mighty Boosh in the third series, acting as script editor and also reprising his role of Saboo in the episodes "Eels", "Nanageddon", "The Strange Tale of the Crack Fox" and "Party".

The IT Crowd

Main article: The IT Crowd

Ayoade is now a recognisable face in Britain owing to his role as the technically brilliant but socially awkward Maurice Moss in Channel 4's The IT Crowd. In 2008, he won the award for an outstanding actor in a television comedy series at Monte-Carlo Television Festival for his performance. In 2009, Ayoade co-starred with Joel McHale in the pilot for an American remake, reprising his role with the same appearance and personality; no series was commissioned, and the pilot never aired. In May 2014, Ayoade won a BAFTA for Best Male Comedy Performance for his performance in the show's 2013 special.[18][19]

Was It Something I Said?

Main article: Was It Something I Said?

Ayoade was a team captain on the Channel 4 panel show Was It Something I Said?, which began airing on 6 October 2013 and co-starring David Mitchell as host and Micky Flanagan as fellow team captain.[20][21]

Submarine

In 2010, Ayoade released his debut directorial feature, Submarine, a coming-of-age comedy-drama film adapted from the 2008 novel of the same name by Joe Dunthorne. The film stars newcomers Craig Roberts and Yasmin Paige with Sally Hawkins, Noah Taylor and Paddy Considine. The film was produced by Warp Films and Film4 and musician Alex Turner of Arctic Monkeys contributed five original songs to the soundtrack.

The film premiered at the 35th Toronto International Film Festival in September 2010.[22] Following a generally positive reception it was picked up by the Weinstein Company for a North American release.[23] The film also played at the 54th London Film Festival in October 2010 and was played out of competition at the 27th Sundance Film Festival in January 2011.[24][25] It was also screened along with 400 other films at the 61st Berlin International Film Festival the next month.[26] It went on general release in the UK on 18 March and was released on 3 June in the US. It won the 2011 London Awards for Art and Performance. Ayoade was also nominated for a BAFTA for Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer at the 65th British Academy Film Awards.

Music video work

Ayoade has directed videos for the Arctic Monkeys ("Fluorescent Adolescent", "Crying Lightning" and "Cornerstone"), Super Furry Animals ("Run Away", which has Matt Berry in the lead role[27]), the Last Shadow Puppets ("Standing Next to Me" and "My Mistakes Were Made For You") and Vampire Weekend ("Oxford Comma" and "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa"), as well as for Kasabian ("Vlad the Impaler", which starred Ayoade's frequent collaborator Noel Fielding) and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs ("Heads Will Roll"). In 2007 he directed a live Arctic Monkeys DVD entitled At the Apollo, which was recorded at the Manchester Apollo. It was previewed at Vue cinemas across the UK during October 2008 and was released on DVD the following month, winning the "Best DVD" title at the NME Awards that year.

Voice acting

Ayoade voices Todd Lagoona, an anthropomorphic hammerhead shark who is a recurring character in Noel Fielding's Luxury Comedy. Since 2013, he has voiced Templeton in the CBBC animation Strange Hill High and in 2014 he voiced Mr. Pickles, Snatcher's henchman in the stop motion animated fantasy film The Boxtrolls.

In 2013, Virgin Media launched an advertising campaign starring the Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt which also featured the voice of Ayoade. He again lent his voice to an advertising campaign when he teamed up with fellow IT Crowd star Chris O'Dowd to provide the voice over for Apple's iPhone 6 advertisement campaign which was released in the United Kingdom in 2014.[28]

In 2013 Penguin Audio released several Roald Dahl audiobooks featuring the voices of some of the UK's most prominent stage and screen performers, including Ayoade, Chris O'Dowd, Kate Winslet, Andrew Scott, Stephen Fry, Dan Stevens, Hugh Laurie and Miriam Margolyes. Ayoade reads The Twits in the audiobook collection.[29]

In 2015 a reboot of the cartoon Danger Mouse was created where Ayoade voices the character of The Snoman.

Ayoade on Ayoade: A Cinematic Odyssey

Ayoade's first book Ayoade on Ayoade: A Cinematic Odyssey was published by Faber and Faber on 2 October 2014. It satirises the nature of interviews and books that document and analyse the careers of iconic film directors (e.g. Orson Welles and Martin Scorsese). The book parodies Faber's Directors on Directors series, in which critically celebrated filmmakers discuss their work.[30] A Cinematic Odyssey sees Ayoade conduct several interviews with himself in which he discusses his work and enthusiasm for the world of cinema. Ayoade has said that he hopes that the book will act as 'a container for jokes that's themed around film'.[31]

Other work

In 2005, he played the role of Ned Smanks in Chris Morris' and Charlie Brooker's Nathan Barley. Ayoade directed, co-wrote and co-starred (with fellow Darkplace and IT Crowd cast member Matt Berry) in AD/BC: A Rock Opera, and has appeared on T4. He helped write The Mighty Book of Boosh, along with Noel Fielding, Julian Barratt, Rich Fulcher, Dave Brown and Michael Fielding. He is also featured in Paul King's film, Bunny and the Bull,[32] where he plays the role of an extremely boring museum tour guide.[33]

In November 2007, Ayoade appeared on Channel 4's The Big Fat Anniversary Quiz, which marked the channel's 25th anniversary. In January 2011, he appeared on The Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2010, then appeared again in December 2012 on The Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2012, and once again on The Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2013 in December 2013.[34] In March 2011, Ayoade directed the episode Critical Film Studies in season 2 of Community. Ayoade directed comedian Tommy Tiernan's world stand-up tour, Crooked Man, which was released in November 2011.[35]

Ayoade starred in the American comedy film The Watch (2012),[36] alongside Submarine producer Ben Stiller. He co-wrote and directed the comedy film The Double,[37] starring Jesse Eisenberg and Mia Wasikowska.[38][39] He also plays various characters in the show Noel Fielding's Luxury Comedy.[40]

Ayoade replaced Stephen Fry as presenter in the second series of Channel 4's Gadget Man, in September 2013 and also hosted a third series in August/September 2014.[41][42]

He is the host of Travel Man: 48 Hours In... also on the Channel 4 network.

Personal life

Ayoade married the actress Lydia Fox in 2007. They have two daughters, Esme and Ida. The couple are expecting a third child in 2015.[43] Ayoade is a dog enthusiast and has two brown Dachshunds named Marv and O'Grady, who appeared in The Double.
