His first audition on the ITV show has received over 20 million views on YouTube so far.

He eventually finished runner-up at just 14 years old and has since worked with the likes of Jason Manford and Vic Reeves, while also performing stand-up on shows like ITV’s Sunday Night At The Palladium and It’s Been A Funny Old Week. Most recently, he performed on the world famous series Live At The Apollo. He’s also appeared on Sky’s critically-acclaimed sitcom Trollied.

Alongside Jack is Seymour Mace, a former Edinburgh Festival Best Show Award nominee. He has starred on Dave’s One Night Stand, The Weird World Of Russell Brand, The Stand-Up Show, Hebburn and Clive Anderson’s Chat Room.

He was also a regular in BBC2’s Johnny Vegas sitcom Ideal and is a former City Life Comedian of the Year and Breakthrough Act at the North West Comedy Awards. Seymour is a teller of extremely tall tales and master of the terrifically twisted one-liner.
