Colin Hunt is a recurring character in the BBC comedy sketch show The Fast Show. The character is played by Charlie Higson.

Colin Hunt is an exaggerated stereotypical parody of the "office joker" in that he frequently calls upon his eccentric sense of humour when at work (or anywhere else). More often than not his constant gags, practical jokes and slapstick fail to impress and serve to persistantly irritate his colleagues. He has a ginger afro and wears oversized glasses, a maroon jacket and an extremely loud and tacky shirt and tie. The name Colin Hunt also provides a subtle hint as to what his workmates think of him .
