Ceremony host: Ed Byrne

Ed is a renowned comedian/presenter and actor. With his TV career now in its third decade, Ed has regularly appeared on the likes of QI, Mock The Week, Alan Davies As Yet Untitled, The Pilgrimage, Dara and Ed’s Road to Mandalay, Dara & Ed’s Big Adventure, The Graham Norton Show and Have I Got News For You, as well as hosting Live At The Apollo and Comic Relief Bake Off. He was recently seen as a contestant on BBC One’s Celebrity Best Home Cook (where he made it to show 5 out of 8 – not bad!) and he has also won (yes, won!) celebrity versions of both The Chase and Pointless!

 
Known for his passion for the outdoors (hill walking and mountaineering are major hobbies), Ed can be seen turning his presenting skills to factual broadcasting in BBC Two’s Volcano Live, World’s Most Dangerous Roads(where he spent two weeks driving through Siberia) and Into The Wild with Gordon Buchanan.

Ed has extended his nationwide tour of British Comedy Guide’s Best Comedy Show 2023, and his most personal show to date, until April 2025, almost two years after he began performing it. From the quote attributed to Mark Twain, humour is defined as Tragedy Plus Time.

With legions of fans both in the UK and abroad, Ed remains the observational stand-up to see.
