**DOM is a multi-award winning** British comedian and writer, best known for his smash hit hidden camera series *Trigger Happy TV*. Dom’s other comedy television credits include *This is Dom Joly, World Shut Your Mouth* and *Fool Britannia.* He recently brought back an updated and brand-new series of *Trigger Happy* to huge acclaim for *All4* and *Channel 4\.* Dom is also a former diplomat and political producer turned columnist and award-winning travel writer.

**Dom said:** *“I’m soooo excited to play the part of the narrator in The Rocky Horror Show. I’ve been entranced by the show since I stumbled upon it, one late night, in a cinema in Notting Hill Gate in 1990\. More importantly, I haven’t had the opportunity to wear fishnets since I was a Goth back in the late Eighties…any excuse…”*
