Noel Fielding is one of the founding members of the surreal British comedy troupe The Mighty Boosh. He and his partner Julian Barratt met through the London stand-up comedy circuit in the late nineties and eventually formed the troupe with three other members, including Fielding's brother Michael. They performed on stage and radio until they were snatched up by the BBC Three network, where they filmed twenty television shows under the name The Mighty Boosh. Fielding has become most well known for his Boosh skit, "Old Greg," but one can best appreciate his strange imaginative prowess if one watches his recent stand-up performances. Most of it is improvised, and the result is rather entertaining!
Here is a clip from a bit he did for the BBC in 2008, at the height of his popularity.
