Episode description

Phil Ellis is an award winning standup comedian who excels in delivering the unexpected. A gifted and naturally funny performer with a penchant for the obscure. He is a star of BBC Radio 4. The hit Edinburgh Fringe show Funz & Gamez won him the Fosters Panel Prize, which later went to BBC3. Phil’s TV appearances include The Russell Howard Hour (Sky), Drunk History: UK (Comedy Central), as well as writing and performing credits on BBC Three’s The Tapeface Tapes. Phil also co-wrote three comedy shorts- Phil’s Ill- for Dave.  Phil is without doubt a rising star and he has just finished series 2 of his very own BBC Radio 4 sitcom, Phil Ellis Is Trying. Phil and Kev are old friends and the conversation flows from memories of each other’s early material, to how Phils anarchic style fit the comedy club circuit, his big break, BBC Radio 4 recording with heroes like Johnny Vegas, Alexi Sayle, Lee Mack and others, and plenty of giggling. We even talk about Leanne. You can catch Phil at Edinburgh with his show Au Revoir.
