Born in Paddington, London, on 5 March 1974, Lucas is the son of Diana (née Barnett), a social worker, and John Lucas, a senior lecturer in business studies. He has two older sisters, Julie and Kate. Lucas was educated at Windlesham House School, an independent school in Sussex, before going on to study drama at the University of Bristol.

Lucas began his career in 1991, when he wrote and performed in the BBC Radio 4 series The Skivers. He then went on to write and star in the BBC2 sketch comedy series Little Britain, which ran for three series from 2003 to 2005. The show was a huge success, winning multiple BAFTAs, and led to a number of spin-offs, including the 2006 film Little Britain Abroad and the 2007–2008 live tour Little Britain Live.

In 2011, Lucas starred in the BBC sitcom Come Fly with Me, which he co-wrote with David Walliams. The show was cancelled after one series due to poor ratings. Lucas has also appeared in a number of films, including Bridesmaids (2011), Alice in Wonderland (2010), and Paddington (2014).

Lucas is openly gay and has been in a relationship with television producer Kevin McGee since 2006. The couple married in 2006, but McGee died by suicide in 2008. Lucas has since said that he “doesn’t really feel the need to get married again”. He has one daughter from a previous relationship.

Lucas has a net worth of $9 million (£6.5 million), as of 2020. He has earned his wealth through his successful career as a comedian and actor.
