Tez Ilyas

Blackburn-born British-Pakistani comedian Tez Ilyas, one of the most most celebrated stars in British comedy, and Sunday Times best selling author (Secret Diary of
a British Muslim Aged 13 3⁄4) is back with his hilarious new show, After Eight.

A lot has changed in the last two years for Tez.

He got married, he bought a house, and he’s became a stepdad... to two rabbits.

Trying to make sense of his new life, the changing world around us and wrestling the big questions, like: why is Lotus Biscoff in everything now?

As well as delivering his politically astute stand-up, he is one of the stars of hit sitcom Man Like Mobeen (BBC Three) and has appeared on a host of panel shows, including Mock the Week and The Last Leg,as well as fronting his own critically-acclaimed cult-hit satirical series The Tez O'Clock Show (Channel 4). His own sitcom pilot (Blap) Bounty for Channel 4 has amassed over 800,000 views (the most-watched in the strand's 10-year history), his TEDx Talk has over 150,000 views and his Live at the Apollo performance has been watched over 10 million times online.
