Something wrong?About this person
After winning several awards and performing several shows at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, he underwent therapy, which prompted him to address his abuse in both his 2019 stand-up show "Off Limits" and a subsequent appearance on Live at the Apollo. The reaction to the latter caused him to suffer a mental health crisis, which he explored in his 2023 Fringe show "Optimism Over Despair". He has also appeared in Bobby & Harriet Get Married, Late Bloomer, and Brad Boyz, and presented the documentary Let's Talk: Child Sex Abuse.
