Biography

Hill was born as Matthew Keith Hall in Woking, Surrey on 1 October 1964 and grew up in Staplehurst, Kent where he attended the local primary school. At the age of 14, his family moved to Hong Kong for two years where he attended Island School. He was later educated at Angley School and then Cranbrook School in Kent and St George's Hospital Medical School before training in neurosurgery at the University of London. Hill worked as a house officer at Doncaster Royal Infirmary, before quitting the medical profession because he "didn't feel in control of what was happening". Hill married artist Magda Archer in 1996 in Wandsworth, London. They have three daughters, all born in Kensington and Chelsea, London: Kitty, Winnie and Frederica. He now resides in the seaside town of Whitstable, Kent. In February 2006, Hill was a victim of identity theft; a sum of £280,000 was stolen from his bank account. In September 2008, Hill worked with Fairtrade to release Harry's Nuts, a brand of fairtrade peanuts. He is known to have been a supporter of his namesake football club Harrow Hill F.C., also known as Harry Hill F.C. In 2008, he was presented with a Harrow Hill badge, which he subsequently wore regularly on episodes of his television series Harry Hill's TV Burp.
Hill was awarded an honorary Doctorate of Arts by the University of Kent on 17 July 2014, in recognition of his contribution to television and the arts.
