Biography

Terry Mynott is an exciting new comedy talent, notable as both an actor and for his astounding ability as an impressionist. Terry is currently in pre-production for his own Channel 4 pilot entitled ‘The Mimic’, where we see Terry playing a lonely bloke with a boring job, who uses his ability of mimicking celebrity voices to get ahead in life, through a hugely creative array of comedic scenarios.

Terry starred alongside Morgana Robinson and Tom Davis in ‘The Morgana Show’, broadcast on Channel 4 from November 2010. The show featured a host of celebrity impressions and original comedy characters. The Morgana Show on DVD will be released in Autumn 2011.


The end of 2010 saw Terry voicing all the male parts for Channel 4's new comedy series ‘Robert's Webb’, “an alternative take on the week's online news and happenings - scouring the internet for the funniest tweets, the most talked-about uploads, the weirdest new Facebook," hosted by Peep Show star Robert Webb.

Terry began mimicking Julian Clary and Frank Spencer as a child and has now built up hundreds of impressions to include movie stars such as Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Morgan Freeman and TV personalities like Louis Walsh, David Attenborough and Alan Carr. Terry released a now infamous homemade YouTube video of his impressions, which has had thousands of views, and made fans in respected comedy writers and producers such as Graham Linehan and Robert Popper who posted the link of the video on their Twitter page and subsequently brought him to the attention of John Noel.

In 2009 Terry wrote for several animated projects, which included ‘The Adventures of Bill Zapier’, made for comedian Rhys Darby. He also acted in Leigh Francis’ ‘Chamone Mo’ Fo’ Selecta’ a Tribute to Michael Jackson’ which aired on E4 and was later released on DVD. In 2008 Terry provided the voiceover for a MySpace comedy campaign produced by Paul McCartney & animated by Geoff Dunbar.

In 2006 Terry worked with animator Scott Mitchell to create ‘Star Street’, a comedy animation series spoofing Star Wars for the website Comedy Box, a subsidiary of Warner Music and started by QI creator John Lloyd. The show was one of the most successful on the website. Subsequently Terry was commissioned to create an animation special for QI’s first DVD release.

Terry left school at 16 and dabbled in several different jobs ranging from working in the London sewers to being a photographer’s assistant in Los Angeles and even touring the country supporting Faithless aged 18 with his pop band Kawala.
