Jake Lambert (Semi-finalist of BBC New Comedy Awards)

Jake Lambert fell into a career as a stand-up after gaining a following on Twitter under the pseudonym @LittleLostLad and deciding to put down his iPhone and pick up a microphone.

It has proven to be a great choice with him making it to the semi-finals of the BBC New Comedy Award within six months of his first gig, and Jake has gone on to perform on BBC Radio 2 and Radio 4 Extra.

Jake can now be seen performing his combination of one-liners, short stories and strange thoughts in comedy clubs, universities and theatres across the UK as well as still making his ever-increasing Twitter following laugh.
