yeah I did look at Wikipedia but as with a lot of its stuff the entry is poorly organised and I can't really tell which of this list is current and which isn't... (JAM obviously isn't) but thanks!

I'm not sure what else Chris produces.  But since comedic performing is more of a side gig, that would certainly explain him being cast in one of my favorite Dr. Who audio dramas 'The Kingmaker'.  I forget which role he played, but he was awfully good in it.  The cast also includes another Just a Minute alum, Arthur Smith as the Duke of Clarence I believe.   I would definitely recommend this story to Dr. Who fans, and to Just a Minute fans.

just looking at his blog he says his full-time work is as a producer of BBC comedy shows and his comedy work is a spare-time gig these days. Anyone know what shows he produces?

Although there are comparisons to be made between Kenneth Williams and Chris Neill, to go on for paragraphs about how Kenneth was better seems a bit like saying "the sun came up today". Of course Chris isn't as funny as Kenneth. Hardly anyone on the planet is.
 
I think Chris is funny on the show and has developed a unique schtick which works. I think a better comparison than with Kenneth is with Alan Carr who seems to me have a far more successful career. I'd be interested to know actually what Chris's major work is at the moment. Perhaps someone else knows?

Yupp, agreed, that is a very poor page indeed.
Miranda Hart's House Party is fairly recent (the most I think) in 2008 - but not bang up to date.

Searching for Chris Neill on the Internet only produces pages about his stand-up.
For someone who only does it as a sideline, it gets an awful lot of attention on t'Internet  =o)

Even his blog entry on myspace doesn't give much away and it's still in use - he last logged on last week

"By day I produce comedy radio programmes for the BBC and then in the evening I tout myself about as a comedian, appearing at lovely places like Robin Ince's Book Club and the Brighton Comedy Festival which was gorgeous. Tiresomely, work sometimes takes me to less lovely places. I still feel hugely put out when a gig conflicts with Coronation Street."

He did also produce a comedy series for Radio 4 called "Clement Doesn't Live Here Anymore" starring Steve Furst, about a lecherous ghost living in someone's attic... I appeared in one episode playing a drunken GP. Chris was lovely to work with, creating a happy company atmosphere, and as a stand-up comedian did a great audience warm-up before the show!!
