Mike

The observant comic.

A lot of people think that Mike looks suicidally depressed most of the time. And it's true: Mike does look miserable when he's sitting quietly. But he doesn't realise it. Appearances can be deceptive, for, when he's woken from his quiet state, Mike is actually a very funny man. Master of innuendo, of the observational joke, a man with quick wit and great humour. It's just a shame he looks so sullen when he's not engaged in conversation.

Up for most action, it's not surprising that Mike was readily willing to join Mark and Finbar on their canal holiday, the promise of pub-hopping and the potential for a lot of laughs probably a big part of the appeal.
