BBC Radio 4 - Stand-Up Specials, Geoff Norcott: Well Classy

Geoff Norcott examines his class identity – and ask if he’s changed.

The award-winning comedian examines his own class identity. Has he changed, now he knows the taste of brioche? From 2022.

Award-winning comedian Geoff Norcott returns, this time examining his own class identity. 

Is it defined by where he's from, or where he's at? Has he changed, now he's known the taste of brioche? Or is he the same old Geoff that he used to be, growing up on the council estate? And, most importantly - why does he care?

Geoff’s previous Radio 4 show won the BBC Best Comedy Award 2019. He is one of the stars of The Mash Report and appears regularly on Question Time. He writes for national publications with articles appearing in The Sunday Telegraph, The Independent and The New Statesman. He writes regularly for other comedians including Sarah Millican, Romesh Ranganathan and Katherine Ryan. Geoff was awarded an Operational Services Medal for five frontline tours entertaining the troops in Afghanistan.
