He has subsequently appeared on Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow (BBC1) and Edinburgh Comedy Fest (BBC3)

PAUL SWEENEY

Paul Sweeney has been amusing the UK comedy circuit with his entertaining, befuddling and wildly imaginative style of comedy.

"Paul Sweeney swishes about the stage like a surreal tea caddy, liberally tickling our funny bones with his marvellous, unusual, quercine humours" - Paul Foot

"He's fresh, funky, new and original, a breath of fresh air on the comedy circuit and he'll knock people out with his funny jokes and his bushy hair" - Patrick Monahan
