Tonight, host Gareth Richards introduces whip-smart comic Ellie Taylor and hilarious rising star Mark Cooper Jones.
Gareth Richards hilarious stand-up, silly jokes and gorgeously low-key comedy songs have made him an instant favourite on the comedy circuit. In 2010 he was nominated for Best Newcomer at Fosters Edinburgh Comedy Awards, and has since appeared on shows including Russell Howards Good News and BBC 3s Live at the Electric. Gareth also co-hosted Frank Skinners Absolute Radio show for two years and supported Frank on his 2014 tour.
Stand-up comic, actor, writer and presenter Ellie Taylor is best known for hosting BBC 3s Snog Marry Avoid and her appearances on 8 out of 10 Cats, Mock the Week, and The John Bishop Show.
Smart, self-mocking and telegenic, its hard to see what is going to stand in Taylors way. (The Scotsman)
Hotly tipped as One to Watch (Londonisfunny.com), Mark Cooper-Jones is an exciting emerging stand-up comedian, a Chortle Best Newcomer Nominee, and one third of the highly acclaimed sketch group WitTank. With much of his material derived from his past experiences of teaching geography, Mark is an authoritative stand up with a penchant for rules, countries and capitals tests.
