A five-time Gold Logie nominee, Adam Hills is one of Australia's best-known comedians.

He is adored across Australia for his iconic role as host of ABC TV's music-orientated quiz show Spicks and Specks and for his talk show, Adam Hills Tonight. Most recently, Adam hosted a reboot of 'Spicks' for a series of specials airing in 2021 on the ABC. It was such a success that they went on to record a brand-new full season which aired in September 2022.

Across the pond Adam has likewise become a household name with his talk show on Channel Four. The Last Leg was originally commissioned as a one-off series for the 2012 London Paralympics, but the Poms loved our mate Adam so much it has been on air ever since! You can also catch The Last Leg on ABC TV in Oz.

He's not always sitting behind a desk on TV. Adam also spends a lot of time standing on stage with a mic in hand. Adam has been nominated three times for the Perrier award at The Edinburgh Fringe Festival. His latest stand-up show, Shoes Half Full, was performed at the 2021 Melbourne International Comedy Festival and the 2021 Sydney Comedy Festival.

Comedy is such a massive part of Adam's life that he wrote a whole book about it, his memoir Best Foot Forward went on to become a Times best seller. Adam wrote a second book Rock Star Detectives which was released in early 2022: it's not a memoir, at least, that's what he's told us.
