David Mitchell est un Acteur, Réalisateur et Ecrivain Britannique né le 14 juillet 1974 à Salisbury (Royaume-uni)
David James Stuart Mitchell (né le 14 juillet 1974) est un acteur comique britannique.
Il s'est fait connaître en tant que membre du duo comique Mitchell and Webb avec son partenaire Robert Webb, dont il a fait la connaissance à l'Université de Cambridge. L'un et l'autre ont été membres des Cambridge Footlights, club que Mitchell présida en 1996.
Ensemble, ils jouent dans la série télévisée Peep Show, diffusée sur Channel 4. Mitchell y interprète Mark Corrigan, rôle pour lequel il remporte le British Academy Television Award de la meilleure performance comique en 2009. Mitchell et Webb ont également conçu et joué plusieurs émissions de sketches comiques, dont The Mitchell and Webb Situation, That Mitchell and Webb Sound et plus récemment That Mitchell and Webb Look. Leur premier long métrage, Magicians, sort en 2007.
Mitchell participe également à plusieurs panel show anglais, jeux télévisés auxquels participent des célébrités, notamment Was it something I said? et The Bubble dont il présenta l'unique saison en 2010, 10 O'Clock Live et Would I Lie to You? où il tient le rôle de capitaine d'équipe, il participe aussi régulièrement à QI, Mock the Week et Have I Got News for You. Il est également présentateur de l'émission de radio The Unbelievable Truth. Il tient une chronique dans le journal The Observer.
Mitchell has often joked about his personal life in interviews. In 2005 he stated he had "been in so many situations when I've just said nothing to someone I've fancied." He later added that "I'm sort of all right on my own. I don't want it to be forever, but the fundamental thing is I'm all right alone." For many years he lived in Kilburn, London, as the flatmate of novelist Robert Hudson. In 2007, he was best man at Robert Webb's wedding to Abigail Burdess.
He first met broadcaster Victoria Coren at a showbusiness party in 2007 and was "completely smitten", and although she decided to pursue someone else, he continued to pine for her. In December 2010 they began dating. In March 2012 their engagement was announced in The Times, and they married on 17 November 2012. In May 2015, Victoria announced the birth of their daughter.
He remains interested in history and said in an interview with The Observer that "I can see myself in a few years' time joining the National Trust and going round the odd castle. I think I might find that restful as the anger of middle age sets in." In his interview on Parkinson he stated that if he could go back in time to do one thing, it would be to go to the building of Stonehenge, to ask them "why they were bothering". He is a cricket and snooker fan, and also plays the occasional game of squash and tennis. He is a user of Twitter, and does not drive. He is an agnostic.
Mitchell walks for an hour each day to counter a bad back, and as a result lost weight, but he "probably [has] quite a bad diet" and "probably drinks too much." He is constantly "checking and re-checking things", and describes himself as a worrier. Mitchell is a keen cricket fan and has written on the subject for The Guardian.
His favourite television programmes include The Simpsons, which he called the "best programme ever". He claims that watching new comedy is "very stressful", and cites I'm Alan Partridge, The Office and Monty Python as being among his favourite television programmes. He has also stated a liking for Extras, 30 Rock, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Bleak House, Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, Terry and June and the television programmes of Adam Hart-Davis.
Beyond the realm of film and television, Mitchell cites Evelyn Waugh as among his favourite authors. He once claimed that he is "not remotely interested in music", but appeared on the radio programme Desert Island Discs. Mitchell has revealed that he owns two CDs, Phil Collins's ...But Seriously and Susan Boyle's I Dreamed a Dream.

Biographie
Mitchell's father was born in Liverpool of Scottish ancestry, and his mother is Welsh—Mitchell considers himself British rather than English. On 7 August 2014, Mitchell's name appeared—as part of a list of 200 signatories—in support of an open letter to The Guardian opposing Scottish independence prior to the September 2014 referendum on the issue. Mitchell's participation in the open letter follows a May 2011 Observer column, in which he concludes that the "British will have lost their country" if Scotland ever achieves independence.Mitchell has often joked about his personal life in interviews. In 2005 he stated he had "been in so many situations when I've just said nothing to someone I've fancied." He later added that "I'm sort of all right on my own.
