It's Your Round, a new late night Radio 4 quiz show where four contestants devise a round each. Presented by old hand Angus Deayton, it was a jolly listen, with most of the jolliness provided by Miles Jupp's dad, who gave the answers for Miles's round, and Rufus Hound, who has quite the most infectious chuckle on radio.
Miranda Sawyer, The Observer, 20th February 2011Going Off Air with The News Quiz
And so, the last News Quiz of the series is in the bag, with the usual funnies from our esteemed panel of Andy Hamilton, Miles Jupp, Phill Jupitus and Jeremy Hardy.
Jon Aird, BBC Comedy, 12th November 2010Have you heard the one about vicar's son Miles Jupp?
Forget Frankie Boyle, Russell Brand and the comedy of shock. Stand-up is cleaning up its act and getting politer. A growing band of dissenting comedians out there do not tell smutty stories and crude gags - and the leading light of this new wave of niceness is Miles Jupp, a divinity graduate and son of a United Reform minister.
Bruce Dessau, Evening Standard, 9th November 2010The News Quiz Benefit
This week's News Quiz lineup consists of Andy Hamilton, Miles Jupp, Sue Perkins and Jeremy Hardy. But as we had a picture of most of them last week, instead here's Sandi with one of our excellent script writers - Simon Littlefield.
David Thair, BBC Comedy, 8th October 2010Michael McIntyre's perpetual effervescence fizzes in Blackpool, a town ripe with potential for gags about fags, chips and people with funny accents wearing fleeces. McIntyre also has some sport with members of the Blackpool football team, who are in the audience. The headline act is a hectoring John Bishop, whose coarse schtick about stag dos, hen nights and sex toys is an acquired taste. Much more interesting is Miles Jupp - who was so good in the BBC2 sitcom Rev - mining his background. "I'm privileged, not just to be here, but in general." Elsewhere, the unsettling Terry Alderton, with a strange, tangential but often winning act, has fun with body-popping cockneys, while Justin Moorhouse is rude about fat people.

Julian Shea, BBC, 5th August 2010Edinburgh fringe grilling: Miles Jupp
Next up to hop on the wild ride of Sport.co.uk's Edinburgh Fringe grilling is comedian/actor Miles Jupp[ who, when not appearing on the BBC making grossly inappropriate comments in The Thick Of It or inventing things as Archie in Balamory, can often be found saying very funny things on a stage.
