Hailing from South London, Jack has recently gone from a carpet fitter with no qualifications to becoming an internet sensation and full-time comedian. Whether telling stories of life as a family man or observations on working-class life, his everyday guy persona has gained an impressive following on social media, with over 16 million likes on TikTok alone and 360,000 followers on Instagram.
Jack was a runner up in the So You Think You're Funny? New Comedian of the Year competition in 2022 and made his debut on Live at the Apollo. He has supported Michael McIntyre and Russell Kane on tour.
His debut stand-up show, Skint, was nominated for Best Newcomer at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards 2024 after a sell-out run at the Pleasance. The show, about a working-class father navigating life, was also nominated for Next Up's Biggest Award In Comedy 2024 and won Best Debut Show at Leicester Comedy Festival 2024.
