Great natural comedian, good actor, "fit" in the old fashion way (Bear Grylls), apparently a brill singer (he should be, being welsh), and most of all, he is one of my favourite welsh men!!!

Rob Brydon does not advertise it but he has one of the best singing voices I have heard.

He and Coogan are brilliant at comedy- but prove that comedy is hard, and acting is easy. If I were a movie producer I would give them straight, dramatic roles and cast them in any role they chose. Huge talents!

Yea unbelievable impressions, all three of them

[@pops1507]

England seems to have an unlimited supply of "on the couch" TV shows.

[@Rich.H68]

I've always thought his impressions are mediocre but he's just a funny guy naturally.

[@GnrMilligan]

"Cruise of the Gods" sounds very similar to Alan Tudyk's and Nathan Fillion's "Con Man" It's a great show and with Bryson and Coogan doing a UK version it most likely will be good too.

So does he currently fake a strong welsh accent because of Brynn?

[@Sharon-iq7ot]

He sounds Welsh on this show. He obviously emphasises the accent on Gav and Stacey.

[@JR-ty8gh]

Sharon thanks for your useless advice but I mean he talks the same as Brynn outside of interviews nowadays
