Richard Ayoade: Afterthoughts poster at City Hall

The Spiel

Join BAFTA-winning actor, comedian, director, and writer Richard Ayoade for an evening of reflections as he shares insights from his latest book, Afterthoughts, or Some Pistachios Won't Open: Wisdom for the Unreflective. Partially recognisable for being in The IT Crowd, his acclaimed films Submarine and The Double, he has also hosted TV landfill like Travel Man and The Crystal Maze, and lent his nasal voice to The Boxtrolls, Early Man, Soul and The Bad Guys. But you may well know him best for his role as "photographer" in The Life and Death of Peter Sellers in which he delivered the iconic line: "Please, Mer Sellers, can I get a shot of you and your mum?"
