Matt Morgan is most commonly known for co-presenting infamous Russell Brand Radio Show for BBC Radio 2 between 2006 and 2008, which won a Sony Gold Award in 2008.  Russell and Matt reunited on the radio in 2010 to present a 20-part Saturday night show for Talksport.

More recently Matt has written a 30-minute sitcom which has been commissioned by Channel 4’s 2011 Autumn Comedy Showcase season entitled FUN POLICE and starring Ryhs Darby with Vic Reeves.

On a very different writing project, Matt has devised a comedy drama entitled THE MIMIC around a new and exciting impressionist Terry Mynott. The show is about a lonely bloke who uses his ability to mimic celebrities to get ahead in life, never without the most comically dark consequences. This is in pilot now with Channel 4.

In 2008 Matt co-starred alongside Russell Brand in On The Road, a documentary on Jack Kerouac’s book of the same name. To celebrate the 50^thanniversary of the book’s publication, Brand and Morgan drove coast to coast across America for BBC4, taking just over three weeks and giving the audience a hilarious adaptation of the original journey.

Matt has written scripts for several award shows including Galaxy National Book Awards in 2010, US MTV VMA Awards in 2008, The Brit Awards in 2007 and the NME Awards in 2006.

Matt has written for numerous other TV shows including two series of the BAFTA-nominated Russell Brand’s Ponderland (C4), Russell Brand’s Got Issues (E4), 1 Leicester Square (MTV), The Kevin Bishop Show (C4) and Comic Relief (BBC).

In 2004/5 Matt wrote an animated series called Empire Square, directed by the drummer from Blur, for Channel 4 in the UK. The Fuse Network in the US then picked up the show and Matt headed up an NYC-based writing team to produce six half-hour episodes.
