Greg Davies (Host)
Born: May 14, 1968 in St Asaph, Wales
Best Known For: The Inbetweeners, Man Down and his stand-up tours.
Early-life: Greg was born in St Asaph, Wales, on May 14, 1968 but his parents moved to Wem in Shropshire soon after his birth. Before embarking on a career in showbiz, Greg taught drama and English for 13 years at Sandhurst School in Berkshire and Orleans Park School in Twickenham.
Career: Davies started to get noticed for his comedy as one third of sketch comedy group We Are Klang. His big break came in 2008 when he began playing schoolteacher Mr Gilbert in E4's hugely popular sitcom The Inbetweeners. In 2010, Davies's debut solo stand-up show, Firing Cheeseballs at a Dog, was nominated for the prestigious Edinburgh Comedy Award, which led to a sell-out nationwide tour. His second solo tour, The Back of My Mum's Head, was another sell-out national tour. He plays the lead role in popular Channel 4 sitcom Man Down, a series he also co-writes.
Quote: "I think people find this schoolteacher thing hilarious," he says, "I always get asked if I was actually any good. Well, how do I answer that?"
Trivia: At 6ft 8, it is difficult for Davies to blend into a crowd.

Adrian Chiles (Guest)
Born: March 21, 1967 in Quinton, Birmingham
Best Known For: Fronting ITV's football coverage.

Adrian started his education at Haybridge High School, before graduating with a degree in English Literature from the University of London. He failed the exams needed to gain a post in the civil service, and was invited to apply for MI5 - but failed the second interview. Instead, he read journalism at Cardiff University before joining the BBC, originally for work experience on Business Breakfast.
Career: Chiles rose to become an assistant producer and was soon presenting BBC Two business show Working Lunch, where he became a popular face. He also launched his own show, Chiles on Saturday, on BBC Radio Five Live, which was awarded the sports category Gold Medal at the Sony Radio Academy Awards in 2002. For BBC One, he fronted Royal Millions, an investigation into the Queen's finances, and was the original presenter of The Apprentice: You're Fired. He became a housewives' favourite while co-hosting The One Show with Christine Bleakley. They eventually moved to ITV and had a short-lived spell fronting Daybreak. Chiles has also hosted football coverage on both the BBC and ITV. He is famous for his love of West Bromwich Albion.
Quote: "I don't really do chirpiness. I can't bear the sight of myself in the morning. I wouldn't want to wake up with me."

Claudia Winkleman (Guest)
Born: January 15, 1972 in London
Best Known For: Strictly Come Dancing, and the BBC's flagship Film programme.
Early-life: Claudia Anne Winkleman was born in London on January 15, 1972, to former Sunday Express editor Eve Pollard and publisher Barry Winkleman. Her parents split when she was three, and subsequently remarried. Her half-sister, Sophie, is an actress, and she also has a half-brother called Nicholas. Claudia grew up in the London suburb of Hampstead and attended the City of London School for Girls before studying art history at Cambridge. She considered pursuing a career as a gallery curator, encouraged by her mother who thought the media could be tough on women, but instead ended up working on TV.
Career: Winkleman's TV career began with a job on the regional discussion programme Central Today in 1991, before graduating to Holiday on BBC One and ITV's This Morning. She worked on the infamous L!ve TV and various other digital channels before joining BBC Three's Liquid News in 2002. She also presented a Fame Academy spin-off series, and between 2004 and 2010, she presented Strictly Come Dancing's daily sister show, It Takes Two. Since then, she's fronted Art School, the Eurovision Dance Contest and part of the Sports Relief coverage, as well as her own vehicles, such as King Of. She currently co-hosts the Film programme and since 2013, she has presented The Great British Sewing Bee for BBC Two. After previously filling in as a co-host on Strictly Come Dancing when Bruce Forsyth was unavailable, she became the full-time co-host alongside Tess Daly in 2014.
Quote: On her parents: "Nepotism is a magnificent thing. Not in the sense of 'Don't worry, love, I'll get you a job', but because they can give you advice."
Trivia: Winkleman has lent her support to a number of charities, including Comic Relief and Refuge.
