Richard Ayoade: Meet Mr Modest

Subject

Interviews

Description

He’s the IT Crowd über-geek who has been labelled the ‘coolest man in London’. Now Richard Ayoade has made his first feature film. But it’s not something to boast about, he tells Alexis Petridis. The man the NME once referred to as the coolest in London sits in the Soho offices of a film distribution company, wearing a blue polka-dot shirt and an expression of absolute mortification. The offices are at his disposal because they’re working on his directorial debut; the expression stems from the fact that I’ve just told him about that NME accolade. “When did that happen?” frowns Richard Ayoade.
