Nick Newman was born on 17 July 1958 in Kuala Lumpur. The son of an RAF officer, Newman attended the boarding school, Ardingly College, in Sussex. His career in satire began at school working on revues with Ian Hislop, who was two years younger than himself, and later at Oxford University handed his creation
Passing Wind magazine onto Hislop when Newman graduated. His relationship with Hislop continued into the 1990s when they worked together on Spitting Image, and co-wrote two Murder Most Horrid episodes and the 2003 children’s series My Dad’s the Prime Minister for BBC. Newman’s television credits have also included sketches for ITV’s The Harry Enfield Show, and the creation of one of its most memorable characters – Tim Nice-But-Dim.
