Greg Proops
Seasons on show: UK: 2-10*; US: 1-2* Frequently cast as: host of Party Quirks; first Superhero; guesser on Let's Make A Date. Trademarks: constantly exchanging insults with Clive; morphing his voice - and face - into a myriad of accents, impressions and characters; introducing himself with sexually suggestive names (Unusually Thick, Wide But Not Painful, etc); "Pulling a Greg" - that is, making the audience think he's going to swear, then changing it at the last minute; and, of course, there's The Glasses. Classic quotes: "It's a 'Come As Colin Doing A Dinosaur' Party," (when hosting a game of Party Quirks); "Why, you know, for a murderer you're not all bad. Why, there's been times we've been trapped in this cell together that I could hardly think about anything else but boiling your shorts and drinking the broth," (to Steve Frost, playing two prisoners in Film and Theater Styles); "You know, I can sit behind the desk and make smart remarks, and you can get your butt up here and work!" (one of his many insult trades with Clive)
