Giverny Masso, The Stage, 5th May 2017Glasgow Comedy Festival review: Miles Jupp
Miles Jupp has first world problems. If the real bee in his bonnet is the Duchy Originals biscuit range, it is pretty clear he has led a pretty charmed life thus far.
Marianne Gunn, The Herald, 22nd March 2017Glasgow Comedy Festival interview: Miles Jupp
Miles Jupp performed his third ever stand-up show in Glasgow, travelling through from Edinburgh, where he was a student. He honed his craft on the Scottish comedy circuit before finding success on television, film, the stage and radio. Despite being a one-man multi-media dynamo, he has found time to tour seven stand up tours. His latest, Songs of Freedom is a thoughtful and hilarious meander through subjects like hipsters, manners, identity, regrets and astronauts. Yes, he was Archie in Balamory. He was also John in The Thick of It. He gets around.
