Rhodri "Rhod" Gilbert, (born 18 Octobre 1968) is a Welsh stand up comedian and action hero. Born on the mean streets of Portmeirion, Rhod developed a keen interest in Television, dreaming of one day becoming the first Welshman to be heard speaking on BBC1. Frightened at the prospect of appearing under studio lights "with the power of a million candles", Rhod first took a sojourn to the island of Ireland where he met his spirit guide. His spirit guide, a turkey by the name of Dustin, decried the quality of local programming, claiming that "even a Brit could do better". Rhod took this as a personal mission, deciding like St Patrick before him that he was going to bring civilisation and order to the pagans of the emerald isle.
