Episode 3 of 4

Sketch comedian Thom Tuck presents three up-and-coming sketch groups from the live UK comedy circuit: McNeill & Pamphilon, Barbershopera and Wittank. From May 2013.

Thom Tuck presents the pick of the new sketch groups currently performing live on the UK comedy circuit - with character, improv, broken and musical sketch comedy.

In this third episode of the second series:

McNEILL & PAMPHILON
Double act Steve McNeill and Sam Pamphilon have been performing their comedy socks off since 2009 and have won rave reviews for their three Fringe runs. They have become a regular fixture on the sketch circuit, have written for several other Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ projects and now have their own Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ sitcom script in development. They both appeared on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ 1 in Richard Hammond's Secret Service.

BARBERSHOPERA
Six years ago, Rob Castell and Tom Sadler came up with the idea to form a comedy musical quartet - and Barbershopera was born. Since then, the group has gone from strength to strength, winning a total of six Musical Theatre Matters awards over four years at the Edinburgh Festival, performing in London's West End two years running, and entertaining audiences around the UK on three successive tours.

WITTANK
Sketchateers Mark Cooper-Jones, Kieran Boyd and Naz Osmanoglu came together after achieving notable success as stand-ups on the circuit. Along with appearances on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ3's Live at the Electric, the boys are in the middle of a sell-out tour and host a London residency at The Courtyard Theatre in Shoreditch every month.

Producer: Gus Beattie
A Comedy Unit production for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 4.
