A former political adviser, Matt isn't a typical twenty-something; a passionate, opinionated and excitable young man he loves football, ‘Prime Minister's Questions’ and pasties. He has also gone to extraordinary lengths to get close to both Tony Blair and Brian Clough - and has the pictures to prove it.
Matt is a regular voice on the radio, hosting The Matt Forde Show every Friday night on the Sony-Award winning talkSPORT. He has also recently appeared as a guest on The Now Show, The News Quiz (Radio 4) and Al Murray’s Radio 2 Show (Radio 2). Matt is a writer on 8 Out of 10 Cats (Channel 4) and Stand-Up for the Week (Channel 4) and regularly reviews the papers for Sky News. And has recently appeared on the panel for Have I Got news For You (BBC One).
For two years running at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Matt has performed solo stand-up shows to great commercial and critical acclaim.

Winner of the 2010 Chortle Student Comedian of the Year Award, the Comedy Central Live Funniest Student Award 2011, and the current President of the prestigious Cambridge Footlights, Phil Wang is rapidly making a name for himself as one of Britain’s funniest Engineering undergraduates. In his brief time here on Earth, Phil has supported acts such as Greg Davies, Kurt Braunohler & Kristen Schaal and Chris Addison with his dry, deadpan charm and an occasional ukulele. Phil has appeared as a stand-up guest on The Rob Brydon Show (BBC1), been featured on Three at the Fringe (BBC3) and enjoyed a fantastic Edinburgh debut as part of the Festival's longest-running stand-up showcase, The Comedy Zone.
