Comedy A-Z Pages:
Rick Spleen (Jack Dee) is a moderately successful stand-up comedian with a rather jaded view of life.
He's a habitual liar who has a habit of landing himself (and others) in embarrassing situations.
Somewhat against the odds, he's managed to maintain a long-term relationship with his partner Mel (Raquel Cassidy) and a successful writing partnership with his American co-writer Marty (Sean Power).
