Alexander Armstrong's biography

At a glance

  • Co-presenter of the quiz show Pointless
  • Member of comedy duo Armstrong and Miller
  • Versatile entertainer at various events

Alexander Armstrong is an English comedian, actor, television presenter, and bass-baritone singer. He is best known as one half of the comedy duo Armstrong and Miller, which produced four series, including The Armstrong and Miller Show. In 2020, he took over from John Suchet to host Classic FM's flagship weekday mid-morning programme. He is a regular on the BBC series Have I Got News For You, having hosted over 40 episodes, and he presents the popular quiz show Pointless on BBC1.


Recently, he gained recognition as a travel presenter with the series Alexander Armstrong on Channel 5, where he explored locations such as Sri Lanka, South Korea, and Iceland. In 2019, he appeared in the film adaptation of Horrible Histories: The Movie, Rotten Romans, alongside Nick Frost and Kim Cattrall. That same year, he toured the UK with his one-man stage show, All Mouth and Some Trousers, reflecting his career experiences. Following the success of the BAFTA-nominated show The Real Full Monty in 2018, he returned for the third series of The All-New Monty 2019: Who Bares Wins, working with Ashley Banjo to raise awareness of cancers in intimate areas.


He also presented The Classic BRIT Awards with Myleene Klass and launched ITV's The Imitation Game, a comedy panel show featuring top impressionists. In 2024, he will publish his debut children's novel, Evenfall: The Golden Linnet, the first in the Evenfall series. Alexander is popular on the corporate circuit for awards hosting, after-dinner speaking, and PR campaigns. He and Richard Osman have created a bespoke pub-style quiz, Best Quiz Ever!, for events.

Does PepTalk charge a booking fee?

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.

What happens after I send a brief?

Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.

What does the typical fee range mean?

The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.

Have all the speakers on the website worked with PepTalk before?

Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.

How far in advance should I book a speaker?

Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
