Christian Reilly is a British musical comedian who first gained prominence as guitarist and performer with Rich Hall’s Otis Lee Crenshaw and the Black Liars, part of the Perrier Award-winning show in 2001, before building a successful solo career that combines stand-up comedy, original songs, and accomplished musicianship. He has performed at major comedy festivals and venues internationally, appeared on BBC radio and television, and has become known for his witty musical satire of rock, pop, and everyday life.

I have seen Reilly perform for The Best of The Comedy Store in Manchester in 2011, Mervyn Stutter’s Pick of The Fringe at the Edinburgh Festival in 2012 and 2015, The Best of The Comedy Store in London in 2016 and Headliners Christmas Show in London in 2024.

James Alexander Hall is a Hull-based comedy clown and seasoned street performer whose highly interactive act blends audience participation, homemade props, games and magic. Over the past decade he has appeared at major UK festivals including Glastonbury, Boomtown, Wilderness and Latitude, before presenting his chaotic pop-culture cabaret Smörgåsbord at the 2024 Hull Comedy Festival. Following that show’s sell-out debut, he returned to the festival in 2025 with the animal-themed solo cabaret Heavy Petting. He is also a member of the International Idiots along with Gary Jennison.

I have seen Hall as a guest for the Hull Comedy Festival at Cottingham Comedy Club, as well as performing his own solo show Smörgåsbord in 2024, and a team member for RSPCA Comedy Panel show: Cats vs Dogs, and his own solo show, Heavy Petting in 2025.
