Recently he's taken the mick out of Cheryl Cole for Comic Relief's Lets Dance competition by performing Fight For This Love – we reckon he did it better as well. He then did naked cartwheels and forced Marcus Brigstocke into a game of badminton. In fact he famously got completely naked on Argumental to prove a point about naturalism. All that practice putting down foolish hecklers should mean that Rufus will be a tough man to win a row with, as his fellow captain Marcus Brigstocke will agree on as they've constantly clashed on Dave panel show Argumental. So amazing is Rufus that on his agent's website, instead of listing his many achievements he has instead posted a little poem, which he reckons has "an unpleasant ‘cutesy’ element to it." Luckily for him, he's a much better comedian than he is a poet.ĭespite having one of the busiest schedules, and most varied CVs, of anyone on the circuit, Rufus isn't one to rest on his laurels and he's never moved away from his first love of live stand-up. If that's not cool enough, he once dragged his best mate Steve on an adventure to visit all the pubs inside the M25 called The Red Lion. Romantic Rufus has also showed that he's far more rock 'n' roll than most of the musicians he's introduced when, in 2007, he wed his girlfriend at The Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas, and as if that wasn't cool enough, the pair had met at the previous year's Reading Festival. It held him in good stead when he was faced with presenting the slightly less glamorous Grime Scene Investigations, but if ever there was a man who could bring out the funny side in mucky pups the length and breadth of the nation it was our Rufus, who was once described as "the rich man's Simon Pegg" by none other than the high priest of wit, Stephen Fry.Ī regular talking head, Rufus' wry observations about school life in The Law of the Playground showed everyone just how far he's come, and if further proof was needed it could be found in his canny eye for business, as shown by his appearance on The Apprentice: You're Fired. Paired with Fearne Cotton, Rufus brought a much-needed air of sarcasm to the hit parade. Rufus' impressive turn in the swamps of Pilton landed him the dream job of any self-respecting muso - presenting the sorely missed slice of glitter and lip-synching that is Top of the Pops.

Destination Three also showcased Rufus's wit, not to mention his love of all things musical, which soon saw him drafted in to the Beeb's coverage of the annual mud 'n' music jamboree that is Glastonbury.
