Biography

Comedian, presenter, actor and writer, Stephen Bailey is a proud northern, working class, gay man. The multi-award nominated star’s brand of gossipy humour has singled him out as one of the UK’s most sought-after talents for comedy and entertainment formats.

​During lockdown Stephen wrote and starred in his own mini-series Comedians in Quarantine: House Olympics, for Comedy Central, and created a true-crime podcast with his lawyer boyfriend called Order in the Bedroom. As well as being a prominent talent on the UK comedy circuit, he has also supported Katherine Ryan, Jenny Eclair, Jason Manford, John Bishop, and Sarah Millican.

Stephen’s quick-wit, playful sarcasm and enigmatic charm captivates instantly. He has made a name for himself hosting Celebs on the Farm, Celebs on the Ranch, and Takeshi’s Castle. He was the resident Agony Uncle on Zoe Ball on Saturday and Sunday, and a series regular on Big Brother’s Bit on the Side.
