Jayde Adams

Award-winning comedian and proud Bristolian Jayde Adams is an uncut gem; a force of nature; dangerous and unafraid; the future. It’s safe to say that when Dawn French says ‘Jayde Adams is the 3rd funniest woman in the world. Fact’ she might just be onto something. Her debut Edinburgh Fringe hour Jayde 31 was nominated for Best Newcomer in 2016, whilst critically acclaimed, 5 star Edinburgh Fringe show ‘The Ballad of Kylie Jenner’s Old Face’ was filmed and released worldwide on Amazon Prime as Serious Black Jumper. A regular on our screens, Jayde is the host of Channel 4’s high-concept food show Crazy Delicious, co-host of culinary entertainment series Snackmasters and brought her cult live musical comedy show Amusical to the screen for the very first time for Comedy Central.

Larry Dean is an awardwinning comedian and writer. As seen on BBC2’s Live at the Apollo and Mock the Week, ITV’s The Stand Up Sketch Show and Comedy Central’s Roast Battle. ‘Has the easy charm of an arena comic and the high joke

rate too’ THE GUARDIAN ‘Extremely funny’ TELEGRAPH ‘Unexpected and excellent’

She’s appeared on BBC2’s Live at The Apollo, QI, House Of Games, Dave Gorman’s ‘Modern Life is Goodish’, Comedy Central’s ‘Pep Talks’ and more.

As an actor, she’s recently been cast in The Trouble With Maggie Cole, Cuckoo, Motherland, Out of Her Mind, Trigonometry and BAFTA award winning BBC drama, Three Girls. Sophie Duker is a comedian and writer whose favourite things include breaking hearts, taking names and telling jokes with the confidence of a cis straight middle-class white man. Her Edinburgh Fringe Show, Venus, saw her nominated for the Best Newcomer award, gaining critical acclaim and five star reviews.
