About Milton Jones
Milton Jones is a celebrated English comedian widely recognised for his distinct brand of deadpan humour, eccentric delivery, and intricate puns. A winner of the Perrier Best Newcomer Award and a silver Sony Radio Academy Award, he has established himself as a prominent figure on both television and radio. He is a recurring face on BBC's Mock the Week and has made memorable appearances on Live at the Apollo and Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow. Beyond the screen, he is a prolific writer for the BBC sitcom Not Going Out and the author of several books, including the surrealist novel Where Do Comedians Go When They Die?.
His long-standing relationship with BBC Radio 4 has seen the production of nine successful series, including popular titles such as Thanks a Lot, Milton Jones!, Another Case of Milton Jones, and The House of Milton Jones. Known for his ability to find absurdity in the most commonplace situations, Milton frequently performs at prestigious venues like The Comedy Store and tours extensively across the United Kingdom. His recent work continues to highlight his clever use of language and his status as a leading voice in British stand-up.
Audiences book Milton for his ability to deliver sharp, fast-paced comedy that combines clever linguistics with a uniquely relatable perspective, making him a standout choice for high-profile events.
