Simon Evans

Comedian at Radio 4

Speaker

Comedian and writer Simon Evans has established himself as one of the most intelligent and sharp live performers in the country. His acerbic, sometimes caustic wit revels in his (entirely ironic) sense of superiority over most of the world. Subtle, sarcastic and smart, Simon takes uncompromising aim at life, organisations, and people from the regions. But it’s all shot through with the knowingness and self-deprecation that has made him a regular hit on the UK comedy circuit and at the Edinburgh Fringe and Montreal festivals. Amongst a host of TV appearances, Simon has been a guest on Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow, University Challenge: The Professionals, and The Comic Side of 7 Days. He has also been a writer on Lee Mack’s sitcom Not Going Out, 8 Out Of 10 Cats, and for Lily Savage, and was a writer and co-creator of the panel show Argumental.
