Best of Welsh Comedy

Croeso i Gymru, well almost! Wales might have long since run out of coal, but now they are mining for gold, comedy gold that is. This show brings you some of the brightest emerging talent from Wales. Yn cyrchu ’r enilla chan Cymraeg chomedi at Sheffield, whatever that means!

Lloyd Langford - A prolific writer and performer, Lloyd Langford is proving himself to be a highly sought after act with his striking combination of natural wit undercut with a playful curiosity.

 “One of the sharpest comedic minds on the circuit.” The Guardian

“A lugubrious Welshman with a knack of turning out juicy one-liners, Langford is a rising star.” The Guardian

“A rich tapestry of jokes at his command.” The Independent

Elis James – In the space of a few short years, Elis James has become the face of new Welsh comedy.

'One of the most promising emerging acts around' - Chortle

'He hypnotises the audience into loving him. There’s also a laugh every ten seconds or so which overall makes it a complete joy' - Time Out 

'Welsh fireball Elis James makes for a delightful idiot' - Chortle

'Charming, impish...excruciatingly funny' - The Scotsman

Bennett Arron - Bennett is the only Jewish/Welsh Comedian on the comedy circuit. His humour is a cross between the paranoid angst of Max Boyce and the colloquial valley humour of Woody Allen. However his proudest moment was coming third in the 1982 Boy Scout Disco Dancing Championship.

'A Welsh Seinfeld' - BBC

'Genuinely original and funny' - The Times
