Ciarán Dowd on Don Rodolfo's move to TV
As daring lothario Don Rodolfo charms his way onto the small screen, we chat to the character's creator Ciarán Dowd

Don Martini Toyota Rodolfo is back! Having won the 2018 Edinburgh Comedy Best Newcomer Award with his swashbuckling rogue, Ciarán Dowd has now adapted his acclaimed solo show for BBC Two. Co-written with Tom Parry (Pappy’s, Badults) and directed by Tom Marshall (

Game of Thrones.
We caught up with a clearly delighted Dowd on the eve of the TV premiere. Excited to see the reaction, Dowd described the process of making the short. It was apparently a relatively smooth translation from stage to screen, the lost connection with the live audience amply made up for by the shift from its solo form to an ensemble show.

Don Rodolfo : Reviews 2021 : Chortle : The UK Comedy Guide


Ciaran Dowd’s swashbuckler comes to BBC Two
It’s a big week for 2018 Edinburgh Comedy Award winners. At the weekend, Rose Matafeo’s romcom Starstruck arrives on iPlayer, while tonight the TV adaptation of Ciaran Dowd’s best-newcomer-winning Don Rodolfo hits BBC Two.
On screen, the dramatic escapades of his legendary Spanish swordsman and lothario remain as intimate as they did in a sweaty Pleasance Portakabin. Our 17th century hero, seeking temporary escape from the Catalan army, swashbuckles his way into a dingy tavern where his loyal squire Burke (Jayde Adams, almost unrecognisable in sackcloth rather than sparkles) awaits.

Pick of the Day
Snackmasters, 9.00pm, Channel 4
Right, who loves Wagon Wheels? Everyone? Just as I thought. Which is why you shouldn’t miss this.
Fred Sirieix sets two chefs to the challenge of replicating the classic Wagon Wheel, a precise and heavenly combination of mallow, crumbly biscuit and chocolate.
Tristan Welch, who cut his teeth with Gary Rhodes, aims to solve the problem with madcap gadgets, while Cyrus Todiwala, one of the most respected Indian chefs in the country, takes a more instinctive approach.
