Josh is one of the UK’s best-loved comedians, described by The Guardian as an ‘ace observationalist’.

Having secured one of the hotly contested roles for Strictly Come Dancing 2026, Josh will co-present alongside Emma Willis and Johannes Radebe in the upcoming series.

Starring in over thirty series of the multi award-winning Channel 4 show The Last Leg, Josh also served as team captain on Sky Max’s Rob Beckett’s Smart TV and co-hosted hit shows Hold the Front Page and Hypothetical. He’s made multiple appearances on the nation’s favourite TV shows including QI, Live at the Apollo, A League of Their Own, Have I Got News For You, and Taskmaster, as well as performing on the Royal Variety Performance.

A familiar voice in UK comedy and entertainment, Josh is firmly within the BBC Radio 2 family as a regular cover host, and presents his own series of Pace Setters for BBC Sounds.

Josh co-hosts the mega-hit podcast Parenting Hell with Rob Beckett, which toured arenas and led to the release of their Sunday Times Bestselling Parenting Hell book. Josh’s chart-topping Archive of Pop Culture podcast launched this year, taking a deep dive into the weirdest, wildest and most unbelievable stories from the most important thing in all our lives: pop culture.

He’s the author of Watching Neighbours Twice a Day…How 90’s TV (Almost) Prepared Me For Life, a childhood memoir which secured him the Sunday Times Bestseller status.

Josh’s standup special, Bit Much, was taped as the iconic London Palladium, airing on Sky, and is now available to stream on NOW. He’s back on tour with his brand-new show, Not My Cup of Tea, receiving rave reviews. His show will be filmed at Hackney Empire, for release on Sky later this year.
