Matt Forde
A former political adviser, Matt isn't a typical twenty-something; a passionate, opinionated and excitable young man he loves football, 'Prime Minister's Questions' and pasties. He has also gone to extraordinary lengths to get close to both Tony Blair and Brian Clough - and has the pictures to prove it.Matt is a writer on 8 Out of 10 Cats (Channel 4) and Stand-Up for the Week (Channel 4) but can also be heard on his own late night phone-in show on the Sony-Award winning talkSPORT. Every Friday night Matt tackles the latest news and sports stories with his characteristic intelligence, warmth and wit. Matt has just returned from the Edinburgh Festival where he performed his first solo stand-up show to great commercial and critical acclaim. He also has a number of scripted projects in development."Perfectly timed" Metro"Who the f*ck is Matt Forde?" Noel Gallagher

HENNING WHEN
German Comedy Ambassador to Great Britain
his is not the easiest of jobs because Germans allegedly do not have a sense of humour. Henning does not find that funny.He took office in October 2003 after watching an open mic night that left him convinced that he would do better. Wehn has been performing as the self-styled 'German Comedy Ambassador' ever since. He regularly appears with fellow German performer Otto Kuhnle, and their show 1000 Years of German Humour was nominated for the Barry Award at the 2009 Melbourne Comedy Festival. Wehn also regularly supports Stewart Lee on his tours. His "beautifully crafted diatribes" (Time Out) are delivered with a passion that seems all too real and his material covers topics from football to the price of second-hand shoes, what the Germans think of our beloved 'Allo 'Allo series, to why humour is overrated and stand-up comedy pointless.Guardian"Who said Germans have no sense of humour? Gloriously unreconstructed comedy"Time Out "Glory lies ahead" !
