Comedian Paul Pirie began his stand-up career in 2006, quickly establishing himself on the Scottish comedy circuit.

He worked his way into the London clubs and was launched on to the UK comedy scene, emerging as one of the biggest Scottish acts on the UK comedy circuit.

Paul’s career has encompassed TV (appearing in Ikea’s April 2011 comedy based TV advert), film and radio alongside his burgeoning skill as a stand-up.

His comedic ability has earned him huge popularity across the world, gigging as far abroad as Australia and for diverse audiences such as the Armed Forces.
