Sound Heap Episode 7
I’m back on John-Luke Roberts’ podcast-of-too-many-podcasts, Sound Heap, which is currently midway through its elaborate fundraising drive The Heapening.

The Gargle
I’m back as a guest editor of this week’s edition of Alice Fraser’s non-political-news-digest The Gargle, this time teaming up with Alison Spittle to discuss priests who are addicted to Candy Crush and people who work from Disneyland.

Actor In A House Share
Another silly sketch for you all. I genuinely lived like this for about 5 years.
You Wait. Time Passes. at Edinburgh Fringe 2024
It is happening again. I wasn’t gonna do the Fringe this year. Then I thought, “Hold on – I just completed my life’s work. And what, I’m gonna do that and NOT take it to the Fringe??? Am I crazy???” So I’m back again, if only briefly. You can book tickets here. Cya there!

Binned Off
Miranda Holms’s excellent, weird short film Binned Off is now out on Youtube! I play a guy trying to figure out what happened last night, and Roisin O’Mahony plays my date, who knows exactly what happened.

NonCensored
I’m back as Keir Starmer on Rosie Holt’s NonCensored this week, talking to Harriet and Colin Sense (Paul Dunphy) about the National Trust’s scones.
