Timeline

Bazil Ashmawy, commonly known as Baz Ashmawy, is an Irish radio and television personality, whose TV show 50 Ways to Kill Your Mammy won the International Emmy Award for Best Non-Scripted Entertainment award.

In 2024, Baz created, wrote and starred a TV Series Faithless for Virgin Media Television.

Baz hosts The Money List and Best Place To Be for RTE One and both shows have been renewed for a second seasons.

Baz also is the host of DIYSOS The Big Build Ireland.

2007

When asked in an RTÉ Sport interview who he would like to see win the 2007 Rugby World Cup, Ashmawy joked that he was 'not going for the patriotic 'Go Ireland' I'd have to say New Zealand...typical.

How boring is that.

Think I've made myself feel a little sick there saying that.

I'm going back....'GO IRELAND!'

He appeared in Jason Byrne's award-winning prank series Anonymous.

2008

He later appeared numerous times on RTÉ One's flagship travel show No Frontiers before venturing into his own solo project Baz's Culture Clash on RTÉ Two, which he began filming in September 2008 and finished the following April, travelling the world to film it.

2009

It was aired during September and October 2009.

It had initially been expected to air in March 2009.

For the series Ashmawy visited a coven of witches in Kells, County Meath and underwent hypnosis to allow him to meet his Egyptian ancestors.

Ashmaway also visited a haunted house with a group called "Leinster Paranormal".

He also teamed up with a group of ghostbusters to visit the haunted Carlow Shopping Centre where a little girl and some former prisoners from the old county gaol were among the ghosts which were said to haunt the building.

The episode in the shopping centre was filmed at night and in one incident a member of Ashmawy's film crew collapsed without explanation when his body was invaded.

In another episode Ashmawy met a man whose diet consisted of Roadkill, including badgers and cats.

The series was poorly received.

Irish Independent critic John Boland wrote of the first episode that it "gives a new meaning to the notion of meaninglessness", and questioned the purpose of a show where Ashmawy "grinned and grimaced his way through southern California in an unserious search of alternative therapies".

Hilary Fannin wrote in The Irish Times that a later episode "investigated (well, that might be too strong a word for it – let's say glossed over) the world of the paranormal".

Paul Whitington wrote in the Irish Independent that the subjects covered in the series were "new-age nonsense".

2010

Ashmawy co-hosted Weekend Breakfast with Baz & Lucy on RTÉ 2fm in 2010, and co-presented the 2008 reality show Fáilte Towers on RTÉ One, as well as the popular travel show How Low Can You Go on RTÉ Two.

His next project Baz's Extreme Worlds aired on 10 May 2010.

In addition to appearing on as television host, Ashmawy is an actor who has appeared in television dramas and other programmes.

Although he says that comedy comes naturally to him, his dramaturgical background has led him to productions of classical theatre and the works of Shakespeare.

2015

In remarking on his experiences with that show, Ashmawy said that he loved Las Vegas where he received a lap dance from (as he describes) 'a former hooker who looked like she was in her late 50s' and said of his experiences on the set of a porn movie in California that 'We saw things there that will be in our minds for a very long time.'

Ashmawy is also a sports fan who tried his skill at GAA management on the RTÉ show Celebrity Bainisteoir.

According to The Irish Times, Ashmawy managed managing his team while wearing 'nicely polished footwear'.
