Add to my shortlistIn Detail
John's journey began when he stumbled upon a run-down comedy club in Manchester. Presented with a choice between paying for entry or performing for free, he opted for the latter. Within just a year, he was headlining the very clubs he had once frequented and making waves in esteemed comedy competitions such as the Daily Telegraph Open Mic and BBC New Comedy Awards. His foray into television was swift and successful. John made his mark as the inaugural guest artist on Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow. He then, graced the screens of popular shows like Mock the Week, Skins, and even tested his wit on Celebrity Mastermind, among others. His ascent culminated in the launch of his own prime-time Saturday night extravaganza, "John Bishop's Britain".

John's material is drawn from his life's experiences, from fatherhood to cycling around the world, to playing semi- professional football, to working as a nightclub doorman. His mix of hilarious observational comedy and tear-jerking pathos leaves his audiences feeling like they have just made a new best friend.
