Chris is currently writing the second series of the sitcom, Those That Can't with Greg Davies (The Inbetweeners/We Are Klang), which they will perform and direct together, for BBC Radio Wales.
On Saturday mornings he co-hosts Rhod Gilbert's BBC Radio Wales Radio Show and has also fronted two documentary series- Nice Club, No Trouble and Chris Corcoran's Club Cultures for the station.
Chris is regularly gigging at some of the best comedy clubs in the country such as The Banana Cabaret and The Glee Club and having recently supported Rob Brydon on his live tour, is preparing for his own Welsh theatre tour, the What Goes On Tour, Stays On Tour, Tour.
2010 will see him build on the sell-out success of his comedy theatre show Chris Corcoran's Committee Meeting in which he stars with up and coming Welsh comedian Elis James and has featured special guests such as Lee Mack.
His first comedy book Random Thoughts will be published by Accent Press/Welsh Book Council, to what he hopes will be great acclaim.
He will of course be familiar to millions of children (and Mums!) from the cult Cbeebies show Doodle Do and he was the writer and hilarious voice of Miss Bunny, the Welsh teddy bear on CBBC's live animated show Nelly Nut Live, both of which were BAFTA nominated, only one of which did he have to pretend puppets were real.
Other previous television projects have included Rob Brydon's Identity Crisis for BBC Four; Max Boyce's World Cup Journey, Big Welsh Joke and Little Welsh Joke and the comedy Six Nations Rugby trails and the entertainment show Be... (where he has interviewed the likes of Cerys Matthews and Rufus Wainwright), Coal Stories, The Big Anthem Fawr, Stand Up if You're Welsh all for BBC Wales.
Chris is a confident and accomplished corporate host and his recent work includes presenting for the Hilton in the Community Foundation Ball and The Cardiff Design Festival Awards.
In 2004, Chris made his Edinburgh Festival debut when he performed his hilarious show Welsh Assembly. His mission was to double the population of Wales by the end of the festival, persuading audiences to change nationality. He failed but in so doing managed to get a four star review in The Sunday Times and The British Theatre Guide.
"Affectionate and charming" The Sunday Times ****
"Makes you feel good" The Times
"A funny, funny man" The Mirror
Having had six years to recover 2010 will see him return to the Edinburgh Fringe with a show that will almost certainly have a less ambitious theme....
