Joe Lycett is one of Birmingham’s most renowned comedians these days.
Lycett made a name for himself after appearing on TV shows including Live at the Apollo, Taskmaster, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, 8 Out of 10 Cats, QI, and as the announcer on Saturday BBC One show Epic Win. He’s also become known for his sardonic political commentary on social media as well as television shows.
The Brummie comedian who is originally from Hall Green, but now lives in Kings Heath, has had a host of high profile public appearances in the last couple of years - including that David Beckham World Cup Challenge, and of course his Twitter campaign around ex-PM Liz Truss.
Known for his satire, the proud Brummie also has his own Channel 4 show Late Night Lycett and is also a brilliant stand-up comic.
Here are some of his finest jokes and one-liners.
