Atle Antonsen

Atle Antonsen (born 11 August 1969 in Lillehammer) is a Norwegian comedian. He has participated in and contributed to several television and radio shows for NRK including "XL" and "XLTV" (1998-99), "Uti vår hage" (2003), "Team Antonsen" (2004), "Tre brødre som ikke er brødre" (2005), "Etaten" (2006) and "Uti vår hage 2" (2008). He has cooporated with such comedians as Harald Eia, Bård Tufte Johansen, Espen Thoresen Hværsaagod-Takkskalduha, Kristopher Schau and Johan Golden.

In the Norwegian parliamentary election in 2001 Antonsen and Golden spearheaded the campaign for The Political Party, a party formed as a satiric statement on modern politics.

On 1 September 2007, at the Norwegian Comedy Awards, Antonsen was awarded the Male Comedian of the Year. He started his speech by saying that the last time he won an award, his mother told him that he didn't thank people properly, and that he was going to do better this time. He paused for a couple of seconds before shouting out "Faen (Norwegian word similar to Fuck, or shit)! Didn't work this time either."
