Gordillo performed stand-up from 1996 to 2000 before he co-created & hosted two series of The RDA aka The Recommended Daily Allowance, a talk show for BBC Three. Gordillo returned to stand-up in 2006. In 2016, his Work-in-Progress stand-up set won Best Show at the Leicester Comedy Festival. Gordillo's solo work includes the 2009 production of Fuckonomics which received mixed reviews. British comedy website Chortle said the show's subject placed Gordillo "on potentially hack, misogynistic ground" whilst The Herald described it as "excruciatingly unfunny." More favourable reviews described Fuckonomics as "intellectually ambitious." His show about his father, Divide & Conga, was received some positive reviews at the Edinburgh fringe and his show Cheap Shots at the Defenceless toured internationally and received mixed reviews. In 2017, he directed & co-devised Ugly Chief at Battersea Arts Centre with performance artist Victoria Melody and her father, TV antiques dealer . The show was a seriocomic examination of death and the tensions of a father-daughter relationship. The piece received positive reviews. Gordillo is represented by the British talent agency Off The Kerb. (en)
