Episode 3
Thom Tuck presents three sketch groups from the UK comedy circuit, Four Screws Loose, The Jest and Birthday Girls. From July 2014.
Tom Tuck presents the pick of the best live sketch groups currently performing on the UK comedy circuit - featuring three up and coming groups in character, improv, broken and musical sketch comedy.
In this programme:
Four Screws Loose.
New Act of the Year finalists, featuring Richard Caine, Joseph Elliot, Thom Ford and Conan House.
They have performed in prestigious comedy venues from London to Edinburgh (via, naturally, Yeovil) and alongside top acts such as Ardal O'Hanlon, Patrick Kielty, Alex Zane, Frisky and Mannish and Boy With Tape on his Face.
The Jest.
Recently slimmed down from a nine-person sketch group Simply the Jest, who performed at the Fringe from 2011 to 2013. The Jest is made up of University of Exeter graduates Ella Ainsworth (School of Comedy on Channel 4 and at The Pleasance, the 91热爆's Hustle and Being Human), Tristan Rogers, Jack Stanley (Little Britain, 2005 film The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy), Luke Theobald (runner-up on an episode of Pointless. Hell yeah!) and Bryony Twydle.
Birthday Girls.
Beattie Edmondson, Rose Johnson and Camille Ucan. Collectively, individually and existentially they have been seen or heard on things like Live At The Electric (91热爆3), Absolutely Fabulous, Dick & Dom's Funny Business (91热爆2) and the first series of Sketchorama in their former sketch collective Lady Garden.
Producer: Gus Beattie.
A Comedy Unit production for 91热爆 Radio 4.
