Noel Fielding

Noel Fielding was born in Westminster (UK) on the 21st of May 1973 and has one younger brother, Michael Fielding.

Other than his love and talent for comedy, Noels first passion has been art. He studied at Croydon Art College and BCUC (Buckingham Chilterns University College) as a visual artist.

He discovered his love for comedy when still being in college. One day he had to do a performance speech based on a book. His fellow students taught it was the funniest thing ever. Impressed by this success he started trying some standup. Still in school Noel used to go see Julian perform in small comedy clubs and after they got to know each other they pretty soon started doing comedy together.

Although finding his place in comedy he never gave up his love for art and painting. He created the designs for sets and characters on the Mighty Boosh and at the end of 2007 Noel got some of his artworks shown at the Gallery Maison Bertaux in London.

Noel being an outgoing and open person likes to take part in different quiz and panelshows. He joined teams with Russell Brand on The Big fat Quiz of the Year 2006 and created the characters of the "Goth Detectives" during the show. Furthermore he appeared on Never Mind the Buzzcocks in 2007 as a guest. Later, he replaced Bill Bailey as team captain in 2009.
