Ivo Graham

BIO | CONTACT | NEWS | TOUR DATES

Despite extensive grooming for more serious careers at Eton and Oxford, Ivo (now 34) has spent his entire adult life on the stand-up circuit, winning So You Think You’re Funny? at 18 and since establishing himself as, if not the UK’s poshest, then certainly its most apologetically posh comedian. With a whopping ten Edinburgh Fringe Festivals under his belt, including his 2019 hit show The Game of Life (nominated for Best Show and Best Joke), Ivo has a bumbling charm that snares audiences of all ages.

On TV, he’s appeared on Have I Got News for You, QI, Mock the Week, The Last Leg and Live at the Apollo. He’s quizzed with varying degrees of success on Pointless, The Weakest Link, House of Games and Mastermind, and co-hosted Dave’s British as Folk in 2021. He’s earned his parents’ respect with appearances on Radio 4’s The Now Show, The News Quiz, Just a Minute, Ivo Graham’s Obsessions and the drama Unite, and has shoehorned Swindon Town references into many an episode of 5 Live’s Fighting Talk and BT Sport’s The Football’s On.

Ivo is a cult favourite among podcast fans, thanks to memorable appearances on Quickly Kevin and Off Menu, plus his own Gig Pigs, a podcast celebrating live music with longtime friend Alex Kealy. 2023 saw Ivo competing — energetically if not successfully — on Channel 4’s Taskmaster, and making bold (and arguably greedy) intrusions into the world of theatre (with his show Carousel touring to critical acclaim) and club night producing. His book, Yardsticks for Failure, published in May 2025, recounts these and other adventures/calamities. Ivo returns to the Edinburgh Fringe this year with a brand new stand-up hour, Orange Crush, plus further theatre and club night offerings.
