Noel Fielding, whom you’ll recognize from The Great British Baking Show, portrays Dick Turpin in the Apple TV series The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin.

Noel Fielding Brings Eccentric Humor to Dick Turpin

Turpin is a legendary British motorway robber. He seeks fresh adventures with his gang of rogues, trying to escape the thief-taker.

Villains, Rivalries, and Unpredictable Escapes

Rather than striving for historical accuracy, the series bends into absurd humor, unconventional characters, and surreal storytelling. Dick relies more on quick talk, luck, and unorthodox schemes. He doesn’t have criminal skill, leading to chaotic adventures across the countryside.

The series looks hilarious, and the talented supporting cast includes Hugh Bonneville, Mark Heap, Tamsin Greig, and Marc Wootton.
