Mathew Baynton
Co-creator and star of Horrible Histories and Ghosts on the music that inspire him
Mathew Baynton is an actor, writer, comedian and musician – who shot to fame as part of the troop who brought us the historical and hysterical sketch show Horrible Histories on C91Èȱ¬.
Since then, along with his fellow co-stars, he has gone on to create, write and star in the critically acclaimed 91Èȱ¬ series – Ghosts.
He describes how he finds inspiration in both the light and shade of Leonard Cohen's songs, and takes great solace in Big Thief's lyrics when thinking of his children.
