Critics Review
‘His uniquely wry and witty humour rolls merrily out from the very first page and we were snorting with laughter like a happy pig throughout. Lots more of the same please Joe! 5*s’

About The Author
Joe Lycett
One of the best-loved performers working on the UK circuit, Joe is a rising comedy star with bundles of stage presence and effortless charm.
Joe’s television appearances include performing stand-up on programmes such as BBC One’s Live At The Apollo and ITV1’s Sunday Night At The Palladium, as well as regular appearances on panel shows including Channel 4’s 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown and Would I Lie To You? He is a regular on BBC Radio 4 including a number of appearances on the institution that is Just A Minute and hosts the panel show It’s Not What You Know. He’s also been on Comedy Central’s Drunk History a couple of times, but he can’t remember.
In 2012 Joe performed his hotly-anticipated debut tour Some Lycett Hot at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival securing Joe a Foster’s Comedy Award Best Newcomer nomination. Joe returned to Edinburgh in 2015 with That’s The Way, A-Ha, A-Ha, Joe Lycett to huge audiences and critical acclaim. The show won the Chortle Award for Best Show. He is actively looking for new show titles that include Lycett-based puns.
This is his first book. His first book that he’s written. He’s read loads of books.
