Character Profiles

Thursday 18 December 2008

The smiling face of the I.T. Department, Roy's spiky personality ensures he'll always be kept away from normal people as long as possible.

He's king of the basement, indulging his love of comic books, fast food, computer games and random arguments with his best friend, Moss.

Chris O'Dowd's biggest claim to fame is his collection of Yorkie wrappers - over 1000 at the last count. Outside of his passion for hearty chocolate bars, Chris has appeared in Mike Leigh's Vera Drake, Red Cap and the award-winning docu-drama, The Year London Blew Up.

Back home in Ireland, Chris also starred in two series of the RTE-produced drama The Clinic, as well as in the drama Showbands alongside Kerry Katona.

  4. It sucks that this show was so short lived. I do not understand? It is one of the most brilliant comedies around. British comedy is great! We do not have good shows like this here in the States :-(

  6. Will this cast be in any future IT Crowd shows? I just discovered it and it has already ended. It's a funny and brilliant show. If no IT shows, what other projects can I see O'Dowd/Ayoade/Parkinson in? I live in Chico Ca. and don't have access to all their British work.
