Julia Davis

Julia Davis is an English actress, writer and director whose sketch comedy work includes Big Train. She helped give the ensemble’s absurd situations an unsettling edge, playing characters whose matter-of-fact behavior makes the scene stranger. She also co-wrote and performed in Human Remains with Rob Brydon.

Davis created, wrote and starred in the television comedies Nighty Night, Hunderby, Camping and Sally4Ever. These series develop the uncomfortable relationships and darker comic instincts found in her shorter work.
