Tom Wrigglesworth
Tom is a frighteningly tall comedian, but a thoroughly nice man with a likeable stage presence and confident delivery. This Yorkshire funny man became a national have-a-go-hero when he rescued a little old lady from the jaws of Virgin train bureaucracy, only to be arrested for begging. He's also the winner of Channel 4's 'So You Think You're Funny?' competition. An articulate and natural raconteur, he possesses an innate ability to riff with an audience like they’re old friends. His warm and hilarious tales, told with true passion never fail to captivate the crowd. His television credits include Russell Howard’s Good News, Edinburgh Comedy Show, Live At The Comedy Store and Engineering Giants. 'Magical storytelling... a rare talent... hysterical and accomplished' (Time Out) 'The gods of comedy chose greatness for Tom' (The Scotsman).

Chris Brooker
A gifted performer, Chris Brooker has taken his unique mix of comedy and improvisation to stages all over the world. After a decade on the UK comedy circuit Chris has forged a fine reputation for himself as a stand-up comedian and compère. His versatility has seen him play to audiences of all sizes and backgrounds, winning them over with his infectious enthusiasm, swift wit and immense likeability. Dubbed comedy's ginger Viking by a promoter, he really is a larger than life character! 'Very funny, very quick... On the spot humour' (BBC) 'A fitting finale, had the audience in stitches' (StudentOnline) 'The best act of the night, his quick wit silencing hecklers and getting plenty of laughs' (Manchester Evening News) 'The revelation of the night. Spot on' (Now Toronto) 'Well crafted jokes... Arguably the best routine of the night' (Giggle Beats) 'As fine an ambassador for British comedy as you could ask for. Absolutely brilliant, made it look so easy' (Tommy Nielson, Director of The Aarhus Comedy Festival) 'A truly touching, inspiring and hilarious show that provided heart felt laughter and moved many in attendance to tears. Absolutely absorbing and thoroughly recommended' (The Oregonian).
