Jack Skipper is a former carpet fitter from South London turned full time comedian. He references the title of his show. It seems that his new found success and fame has not yet quite transferred into material wealth. But with more than 13 million likes on Tik Tok and 200,000 plus followers on Instagram, it seems like it’s just around the corner!

Jack is a talented performer. His average, normal working class bloke persona is very likeable.

He is a dad who is still learning but preferring not to learn too much from his own parents on well, parenting skills. We hear of cheap caravan holidays, cheap food, mainly ham. None of your organic nonsense, just cheap piled high multi pack ham!

The material is not original but is so relatable and delivered with such charm that the audience are never not onside.

As Jack’s online profile continues to grow he is sure to go from strength to strength. He was 2022‘s So You Think You Are Funny runner up and only turned professional in 2020 which was challenging due to the Covid pandemic!

A very entertaining hour of comedy.
