Matt Richardson
One of the hottest and fastest rising comedians on the circuit, Matt has made a name for himself presenting some of the biggest shows on television, including The Xtra Factor, Celebrity Haunted Mansion and The Hangover Games, all whilst presenting the Drive-time Show on Virgin Radio. As well as all this presenting work he's been a guest on Roast Battle & The Chris Ramsey Show (Comedy Central), Celebrity Juice, I'm a Celebrity: Extra Camp, CelebAbility and Love Island: Aftersun (ITV2) as well as Celebrity Squares and The Chase: Celebrity Special (ITV1), as well as Big Brother's Bit on the Side and Lip Sync Battle (Channel 5) as well as hosting a brand new show on E4 and Channel 4. ‘One of the top comedians in Edinburgh this year’ Theatreweekly.com ‘An explosive show that left people with bellies aching from laughter’ Voice Magazine 'Mildly laddish, but self deprecating stories all delivered with an irresistible twinkle... This (extremely) young stand-up is poised to be the next bright, young sensation on the circuit - expect to hear a lot more of him' (The Guardian) 'Hilarious and charming' (The Daily Mirror).

Pierre Hollins
A veteran of the comedy circuit and a regular at Jongleurs and The Comedy Store, described variously as 'far-fetched and semi-dangerous' and 'silly and daft'. Watch out for his bizarre mixture of stand up and song, including his one string electric squash racquet! His 'songs' are jokes that rhyme, set to a guitar backbeat and cover topics from love and hate, to sex and politics. With a totally original voice he delivers his material with charm and irrelevance. '... the amiable Pierre Hollins with his compelling chatty style and absurd guitar posturing... With a totally original voice he delivers his material with charm and irrelevance...' (Funhouse Comedy).

Dave Twentyman
Dave Twentyman's burgeoning reputation means that he can now confidently consider himself one of his home town of St Helens’ finest exports, tales of home, work and the universe are delivered in a stream of consciousness both mesmerizing and friendly. 'Affable, quick-witted banter merchant, Dave Twentyman survived a childhood in St Helens by evolving rapid, startlingly-bright patter and a smile that he somehow stole from Barry Manilow. This is a man who could teach Teflon a trick-or-two but who remains vastly more fun than your average frying-pan. What higher praise can there be?' (comedycv.co.uk) 'Thoroughly impressed, best I've seen in ages. Great warmth and style' (Dave Spikey) 'Quick on his feet' (Gag Reflex) 'Really like his stuff' (Jason Manford).
