Britain’s Got Talent winner Lost Voice Guy is back on the road after 5 years with his brand new show, The Cerebral Palsy Puppet, mainly because he’s spent all his benefit money on stuff he didn’t need, just to annoy the Daily Mail.
Since becoming the first comedian to win BGT, he has been congratulated in the street for winning The X Factor, accused online of having a “backstage comedian” secretly writing his jokes, and told he must live in a mansion at the taxpayer’s expense (it’s a castle, actually).
Armed with his trusty iPad and absolutely no filter, the man with cerebral palsy who also suffers from being a Geordie takes aim at talent shows, dating disasters, Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Department for Work and Pensions’ hold music.
Naughty, cheeky and mischievous as ever, this is stand-up from a comedian who struggles to stand up…and nobody’s pulling his strings.
As seen on Live at the Apollo, The Last Leg and the Royal Variety Performance, and heard on his Radio 4 sitcom Ability. Never seen on The X Factor, whatever anyone tells you.
