Frank Skinner’s live career began in 1987 when he spent £400 of his last £435 booking a room at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Four years later in 1991 he returned to the city and beat fellow nominees Jack Dee and Eddie Izzard to take home comedy’s most prestigious prize, The Perrier Award. He was appointed an MBE by the Princess Royal, Anne, for his services to entertainment in April 2023. Frank’s award-winning show, The Frank Skinner Show, attracts over one million listeners per week and has achieved over 100 million podcast downloads since launch, making it one of the most successful radio podcasts in the UK, and saw him inducted into the Radio Academy’s Hall of Fame in 2016. In April 2020, Frank Skinner’s Poetry Podcast was launched to critical acclaim with a sixth series released earlier this year. As an author, Frank has published Dispatches from the Sofa; a collection of columns he wrote for The Times and has written two autobiographies.
“A comedian so funny that it’s almost obscene. 30 Years of Dirt is a sparkling tour de force from a craftsman with exquisite control of his art.”★★★★★
Dominic Maxwell, The Times, 6th February 2024
Frank’s still the king of carefully crafted filth… it’s hard to think of another comic more at ease with his audience… He’s a consummate comedy craftsman – one man and his mic, no frills but plenty of thrills.” Mark Wareham, Mail on Sunday
