Is this guy Gary Stevenson in costume?
No he's comedian Jonathan Harvey, writer of among other things the political satire "The thick of it" and comedy show "Have I got news for you"

I'm sure he'd get along famously with Stevenson though
He had to change from Lord Bucket head to Count Binface. At least now people will stop confusing him with the world's greatest guitar player.
Autocorrect failure ?
Yeah, two.
I unironically think Gary is going to feature Binface in an episode if he's elected as a MP, it would make numbers skyrocket and Binface is able to be serious while cracking jokes
