From the anarchy of da Bungalow to looking at the Absolute Genius of the likes of Archimedes, Brunel, and Turing, Dick and Dom are two of the most popular TV hosts around. With a wealth of shows they’ve presented and produced, the pair have also appeared as King Arthur and Patsy in Monty Python’s Spamalot and toured the UK with their own show.


Biography

Dick and Dom are Richard McCourt and Dominic Wood, stars of children’s television and hugely popular entertainers with kids and parents alike. They write, present and produce their own brand of mayhem in an array of shows from The Legend of Dick and Dom to Dick and Dom's Hoopla.

The duo came to fame in their anarchic show Dick and Dom in da Bungalow which combined their trademark silliness, games, silly games and goo. The series ran for four years, inspired live shows and a host of spin-offs, books and games, and won two Baftas.

After da Bungalow, the pair presented their own Radio 1 show, Sky’s Are You Smarter than a 10 Year Old?, Dick and Dom's Funny Business and The Legend of Dick and Dom. They also took an educational look at geniuses through history in Absolute Genius with Dick and Dom, studied the natural world in Dick and Dom Go Wild, and created short films featuring their puppet alter egos in Diddy Dick and Dom.

Away from TV they have appeared in Horrid Henry: The Movie, taken their show on an 80-date UK tour, and appeared as King Arthur and Patsy in Monty Python’s Spamalot.
