He’s also due to appear in Greta Gerwig’s all-star hotly-anticipated Barbie, but before that he’s taking his own brand of silly and strange comedy to the next level with the Netflix special A Whole Lifetime With Jamie Demetriou.Īctors Strike Hits Locarno: Riz Ahmed Pulls Out of Festival, Stellan Skarsgard to Forgo Award in Solidarityĭescribed by Demetriou himself as “birth to death in songs and sketches” and also Netflix’s “first British sketch special slash show,” the hour-long special takes audiences through a series of sketches incorporating childhood, adulthood and beyond, often accompanied by song. where the show airs on HBO - he’s probably more recognizable for a growing number of short but often scene-stealing TV and film appearances, including in Fleabag (the guy with big teeth in season 1), Paddington 2 (one of the bear’s fellow prison inmates known as The Professor), The Great (playing Doctor Chekhov) and Eurovision: The Story of Fire Saga (camp artistic director Kevin Swain). In the U.K., he’s arguably best known as the creator and star of Channel 4 sitcom Stath Lets Flats, in which his inept, awkward, rude and delusional Greek-Cypriot rental agent Stath Charalambos - considered one of the best comic creations since Steve Coogan’s Alan Partridge - has won him countless fans inside the industry and out (in 2020 he won three BAFTA TV awards).
Jamie Demetriou has been on a comedic rise for several years.
