Four decades of comedy, drama and theatre
Doon Mackichan is an actor, comedian and writer whose professional record crosses television sketch comedy, sitcom, stage and radio. Her current management biography places Smack the Pony, Knowing Me, Knowing You with Alan Partridge, Toast of London and Two Doors Down among her notable television work. The agency’s dated CV also lists later appearances in Good Omens, Funny Woman and Dreaming Whilst Black. Those are selected, attributed credits rather than a complete filmography.
Her stage record begins well before those recent screen roles. The agency CV lists To Kill a Mockingbird at Birmingham Rep in 1987, Road and The Queen and I at the Royal Court in 1994, The Government Inspector at the Young Vic in 2011, and Twelfth Night at the National Theatre in 2017. The National Theatre archive independently records her as Feste in Twelfth Night. The CV also lists a 2026 National Theatre Summerfolk credit; the production’s dates and role should be confirmed from the theatre’s own programme before they are treated as a fully audited stage chronology.
For radio, the CV includes On the Hour, Knowing Me, Knowing You and later BBC Radio 4 acting and narration. Her breadth is part of the professional record, but the Casebook has not verified every individual transmission.
