Troy Hawke is a comedic character created and performed by British comedian Milo McCabe. Styled as an eccentric, old-fashioned gentleman with a 1930s sensibility, Hawke has become widely popular through viral street interviews and online videos.
The character gained traction on social media through clips in which Hawke humorously greets members of the public—often outside shops—with exaggerated politeness and absurd observations. His catchphrase “Greeters Guild” has become a signature element of the act.
Beyond online success, Troy Hawke has transitioned into live stand-up, selling out tours across the UK. The character blends improvisation, satire, and character comedy, offering a unique contrast to more traditional stand-up styles.
Hawke’s appeal lies in the juxtaposition of archaic manners with modern settings, creating humour through politeness taken to surreal extremes.
