BIOGRAPHY

With a contempt for most forms of physical exertion, Ian was surprised when his peers voted him 'the comedian most likely to run amok with a firearm.' Fortunately this hasn't stopped him making a mark on the circuit and touring with the likes of Lee Evans and Jack Dee.

Ian's take on the world strikes a deep chord - whether he's pointing out the problems of using the wrong vocabulary in a German branch of Pizza Hut, confessing his uncontrollable urge to tidy up the shelves at Primark or revealing his near-pathological hatred of open-toed footwear.

Alongside Jimmy Carr, Ian made such an impact in the sell-out Britcom show at Montreal's Just For Laughs that he was invited to headline the festival's finale. Despite his popularity in Canada and Britain, he actually spends much of his time in France - where he's little understood.
