Review: 'The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin' is a funny spin on a legendary highwayman
Most Americans will know Noel Fielding, if they know him at all, from "The Great British Baking Show," which he has co-hosted since 2017. He's the tall pasty-faced, middle-aged glammy Goth with the loud clothing and a habit of bothering bakers at crucial moments.
You may have looked at this strange, jolly person and wondered whence he came and what kind of career could have sustained him to this point.
Those versed in modern Britcom will know him as a member of the comedy"), "Noel Fielding's Luxury Comedy," sundry roles in some of this century's best and oddest comedies, including "Nathan Barley" and "Garth Marenghi's Darkplace," and many panel show appearances, with five years as a team captain on the music-themed "Never Mind the Buzzcocks." None of which makes him seem any less strange. Or, let's say, original.
