Joe Rowntree and Ahir Shah
Joe Rowntree is a stand-up comedian, actor, writer and presenter. He graduated from Goldsmiths College in 2003 with a BSc Hons in Psychology. His television career started back in 2001 writing put-downs for Anne Robinson on "The Weakest Link". He has hosted 2 UK tours of "Brainiac Live" which culminated at the Hammersmith Apollo after appearing in all six series of the award-winning hit Sky 1 show "Brainiac: Science Abuse" and recently recorded "Dave's One Night Stand" (Dave), which he was a huge hit on! Ahir Shah is one of comedy's brightest new talents, whose sharp brand of stand-up features a blend of socio-political awareness, energetic delivery and jokes. Ahir enjoyed great success in 2013 at the Edinburgh Fringe, where his show Anatomy was described by Fest as being "as thoughtful and compelling a show as you're likely to come across". He regularly performs live across the country, earning a consistent combination of acclaim and apathy.
