Richard Todd
Not the late star of British World War 2 classic The Dambusters, but winner of the Amused Moose Laugh Off 2012. '... A smart surrealist...' (The Independent) '... He delivers with the passion of an insane preacher, and there's a keen off-the-wall wit throughout...' (Steve Bennet, Chortle) 'With his enthusiasm and ingenious thinking he has the ability to play with the audiences imaginations, leaving them both pleasantly baffled and amused' (Funhouse Comedy).

Kate Smurthwaite
Stand-up comedian and journalist who also writes for the BBC Three political comedy show The Revolution Will Be Televised. The winner of a Three Weeks Editor's Award at the 2013 Edinburgh Festival, Kate's appealing character and articulate address intrigues her audiences as she mesmerises them with her unique observational humour. 'A powerhouse of observational wit' (The Spectator).
