“Adam Bloom is perhaps the perfect comedian” The List
Andrew Ryan has the gift of Irish storytelling ability that draws you in from the start. He also happens to be effortlessly charming and hilarious with a cheeky, friendly demeanour that makes him a naturally likeable stand up. As a result TV work is flooding in including BBC2’s ‘Russell Howard’s Good News‘ plus Sky Sunrise and appearances as a regular panelist on BBC Radio. He also looks uncannily like Father Dougal from sitcom ‘Father Ted’ and is a about as funny as its possible to be!
“Utterly brilliant and going to be a huge star!” Time Out
Peter Brush
His imaginative use of language and the quality of his jokes have driven widespread praise and coupled with a distinctive delivery his act is wonderfully quirky like no other. He doesn’t have the barnstorming confidence that some comics have but he’s doesn’t need it as people love his geeky and innocent demeanour. No surprise then that he’s an award winning performer and has been recognised as one of the top comedians of his generation by the BBC.
