I can understand the 6'2 guesses as any guy with an afro is gonna look taller. He's 6'1.5.

On his show question team someone says he is 6 foot 2 but he corrects them by his own admission as 6 foot 1

Chris O'Down joined him on his travel programme - a trip to Vienna if you're interested - and in commentary Richard said they were the tallest actors in light entertainment. A quip like that must mean he's close to 190.

I think 6ft1 flat is less likely than 6ft2

Rob, You can see Delaney really had Richard by solid 2" and do you think its more solid 6'3 on Delaney and 6'1 for Richard you feel?
Click Here Click Here But entire clip shows that Rob Delaney had him by 2" not less. I think its more chances Delaney downplay a half inch than Richard Ayoade being flat 6'1.

Editor RobIt's arguable actually Richard could be nearer 6ft 1, I am not sure Delaney is downlplaying. Maybe his shoes were a fraction thicker than richard's sneaker too.

Haven't seen him in many programs. But from what I see, 187.9cm is a good shout for him. Oh and Big Rob, I like what you've done with the centimeter heights on the site. It's been a minute since I've been up here. But back to this guy, I'd say at the very least he's 187.3. But I still think he's about 6'2. Maybe it's his 'fro?

Assuming he's not lying, he's legit 6'2".
In Season 1 episode 03, at the very end, Moss introduces himself in a dating site.
His info reads

Just met him near Westminster, I think he is actually taller than this, more 189 in my opinion.

I could see him measuring a weak 6'2 also, He is a tall guy but his hairstyle definitely helps, did not look much shorter than Chris O' Dowd on It crowd.
Rob, Have you ever watched IT crowd,really good program, Matt Berry who played Douglas Renholm on the show wonder how tall he is?

Editor Rob for me I'm happy enough with the C range, until I see more that points to a different range being likely.
Big hair can certainly be an advantage in appearing taller to people..

Actually he is a weak 6'1 ... Well healed shoe with an insole or two.... Puffed up hair makes him look taller than he actually is. His listed height above is more like his early morning height.

Rob, how likely is 188cm?
I think at times he could look less than 2in shorter than Chris O'Dowd

@Arch: You think? He does have a scholarly look about him evidently.

Are you sure this guy isn't the full 6'2''. In the IT Crowd he doesn't look much shorter than Chris O'Dowd.
