In Focus: Josh Widdicombe

Published: 8th July 2019

Stand Up Fest 2019 is now just less than one week away and it’s time to turn our spotlight on to the final act of the day – the very wonderful Mr Josh Widdicombe.

Josh is best known for the multi-award winning Channel 4 series The Last Leg, his critically acclaimed BBC sitcom JOSH and for being on of the UK’s best live comedians!

He also is famous for having an incredibly recognisable voice (apparently everyone can do an impression of it!). It’s probably so familiar because you’ve heard it somewhere before…

“If they made frustration an Olympic Sport, he would win every time”

Evening Standard

As a regular on our screens, Josh has starred in BBC One’s Live At The Apollo, Would I Lie To You and Celebrity Mastermind, BBC Two’s QI, Mock the Week and Channel 4’s 8 Out of 10 Cats and Alan Carr: Chatty Man.

Check him out on Live at the Apollo discussing the highs and lows of turbulence:

“Hugely appealing stand-up”

The Guardian

Josh has also been a star of cult hit Taskmaster. So much so, that he actually won the first series. With dedication like this it’s no wonder why…

Josh’s last tour ‘What Do I Do Now…’ saw him receive critical acclaim and his latest show is touted to be even better! Entitled, ‘A Bit Much’, the show will be a very funny night of grumbles and jokes in which Josh will finally tackle the hot comedy topics of advent calendars, pesto and the closing time of his local park.

We are so excited to have Josh perform at Stand-Up Fest 2019. He is one of the UK’s best comics, so don’t miss this chance to see him in one of London’s friendliest and most intimate venues.
