Bill Gates

William Henry Gates III (1955) is the founder of Microsoft.

After series 3, he had a more squeakier voice. Before then, Jon Culshaw provided his voice.

Appearance on 2DTV
He and his family (wife, son and daughter) appear as lookalikes and portrayed as having the same nerdy laugh. Gates likes to take everyday products and present it as a new Microsoft program, such as the book and pen, which he calls "Book and Pen Version 2002.1". In series 1-3 he was voiced by Jon Culshaw. After Culshaw left the series, his voice was provided by Lewis MacLeod using a high-pitched voice.

Book and Pen Version 2002.1
In this sketch, his son is writing with a book and pen, but Gates presents this as a new Microsoft program altogether.

House 2001
In this sketch he introduces to his family House 2001, a successor to the now obsolete House 2000. However, his family interferes with the house, causing it to crash.

The Matrix for Windows
In this sketch, the Matrix characters Neo and Morpheus are met by Bill Gates after the program they're in freezes. Gates installs the Matrix upgrade "Matrix for Windows 2004.1.01 XP Special Edition" but after it finishes Gates renders this upgrade obsolete, causing Neo and Morpheus to attack him, with help from the paperclip.

I've Created a Monster
In this sketch, Bill tries to escape the annoying paperclip as it takes over his life. It asks the question "would you like some help?" all the time, much to Bill Gates' chagrin.
