Children will recognise him as Archie The Inventor in Balamory, but Miles Jupp is also an award-winning stand-up.

He started his career with victories in two new act competitions in 2001 - Channel 4's So You Think You're Funny and the Leicester Festival of The Year award. Two years later he was nominated for the Perrier Best Newcomer Award for his show Gentlemen Prefer Brogues.

On TV his upper-class persona landed him regluar apperances on BBC Scotland's Live Floor Show and has appeared on Paramount's The World Stands Up and Channel 4's You Must Be Joking, among others.

He is also a member of the sketch team The Lost and Lonely Rebels.

Was at the Empire comedy club on January 27th and had an amazing time thanks to this man. He was able to maintain his persona throughout the show while still being able to relate to the audience and get laughs. A real comedy treat.

Jan 31st, Haywards Heath. Not his finest hour. Unsettled by a quiet crowd, tended to gabble his way through the first half which made it worse because no-one had time to work through what he'd said. Better second half, at least managed to get one half of the room laughing. Overall a 40W bulb to Dan Atkinson and Rob Deerings comedy searchlights. Disappointing

I saw him at the Arts Theatre on Monday. I found him absolutely delightful, and wish to marry him.

Glad I've finally seen him. He's brilliant.

Paul Sinha, February 2007

Best of the night at the Kings Head – cheers for a cracking night

An excellent headline performance, non-stop laughter, a brilliantly crafted set.

Ian Smith, September 2006

Saw him in Edinburgh last year doing the warm up and he was the best bit. Excellent and original.

Wendy, June 2006

Excellent on BBC's Spanking New on 7.
