Nicholas George Mohammed (born 4 October 1980) is a British actor, comedian and writer. He has portrayed his character Mr. Swallow across both stage and television for over a decade. He is also the creator of the Sky One comedy series Intelligence. Mohammed portrayed the character of Nathan Shelley in the Apple TV+ series Ted Lasso, for which he was nominated in the Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series category at the 73rd and 74th Primetime Emmy Awards.

Early life

Mohammed was born on 4 October 1980 in Leeds, West Yorkshire.[3] His mother was a Cyprus-born general practitioner and his father was a Trinidadian-born legal professional.[4] He was educated at Abbey Grange High School. He reportedly turned down an offer from Cambridge University and chose Durham University, where he was a member of St Aidan's College[5] and played violin in the university orchestra.[6] He had auditioned for the Durham Revue twice but failed to get in and instead frequented the local comedy circuit.[7] His interest in comedy prompted him to audition for the Footlights, which he did successfully.[8]

Career

Mohammed has featured in the second series of BBC One's Reggie Perrin and was a co-presenter in BBC Three comedy series The King Is Dead alongside Simon Bird and Katy Wix.[9] He has made guest appearances in Pete & Dud: The Lost Sketches, Miranda,[9] How Not to Live Your Life and Life's Too Short,[9] and has appeared in one episode of the BBC Radio 4 musical comedy show Alex Horne Presents The Horne Section.[9]

Following his hit BBC Radio 4 debut (Quarters), Mohammed's second series Nick Mohammed in Bits attracted further critical acclaim.[10] Mohammed was a cast member of BAFTA-nominated CBBC sketch show Sorry, I've Got No Head and supported Angelos Epithemiou (as one of his radio show characters, Mr. Swallow) on his 2010 national tour.[9] He has had a supporting role in all three seasons of C4 comedy series Drifters.[9] Mohammed has also developed The Mr. Swallow Show for BBC Television and is writing and starring in an original comedy-drama Magic for Channel 4 as part of the Coming Up Scheme. He also appears in the new CBBC show Hank Zipzer as Mr. Love. He made a guest appearance in the final episode of series 1 and first episode of series 2 of Uncle.[9]

In 2015, he joined the cast of ITV comedy The Job Lot. He has written and starred in two series of 'Detective Sergeant Nick Mohammed', a comedy set in a police station, for BBC Radio 4.[11]

In 2018, he voiced Piglet in the Disney film Christopher Robin. In 2018, it was announced that he would collaborate on a new comedy series titled Intelligence with David Schwimmer for Sky One.[12]

In 2019, Mohammed appeared in the second series of Stath Lets Flats.[9]

From 2020 to 2023, Mohammed starred as Nathan "Nate" Shelley in the Apple TV+ series Ted Lasso which ran for three seasons on Apple TV+.[9]

In 2023, Mohammed starred as a police officer in the film Maggie Moore(s), alongside Jon Hamm and Tina Fey.[13]

Mohammed is a contestant on the seventeenth series of the Channel 4 show Taskmaster which launched in March 2024.[14]
