Mark Trevorrow (born 1959 in Melbourne, Victoria), ]), is an Australian comedian, television host and media personality.
Unequivocally gay since he was 13 ("I was a queeny little kid. A total drama queen"), Trevorrow has developed the flamboyant alter ego "Bob Downe" - a cheesy, safari-suit-wearing lounge singer, from Murwillumbah, New South Wales. The distinction between the two personae is often blurred: Trevorrow and the "Prince of Polyester" both appear at events and host television programs.
Trevorrow has appeared on the Australian series of Good News Week, often joining with host Paul McDermott in a sing-along of an Australian song at the end of the episode. He has collaborated several times with the Doug Anthony All Stars (which included McDermott), appearing in their TV series, DAAS Kapital, and their film The Edinburgh Years. He has also featured in episodes of the sitcom Kath & Kim, as well as hosting the series The Way We Were.
Most recently Downe was also a contestant on the special Australia's Brainiest Comedian. Trevorrow is currently (2006) a regular fill-in presenter on the Evening Show on 702 ABC Sydney. His return to the media should not be surprising. In his earlier life Trevorrow had a brief career as a reporter on the Sun-News Pictorial newspaper in his native Melbourne.
Trevorrow was raised in the Melbourne suburb of Murrumbeena, the third son of a builder-turned-teacher and his wife. He has a younger sister and two older brothers.
