Sean Hughes
Sean Hughes is an Irish comedian and writer based in London. In 1987, he started working in the Comedy Store, and with his show, A One Night Stand With Sean Hughes, he won the prestigious Perrier Award. In 1992, he had his own TV show, Sean's Show, which received a nomination for the 1992 British Comedy Award for 'Best Channel 4 Sitcom'.
Hughes was also a team captain on the BBC2's Never Mind The Buzzcocks, alongside Phill Jupitus and Mark Lamarr. He left in 2002 stating that he disliked the fact that much of the apparent "spontaneity" from the guests was rehearsed and that he was tired of only being famous for one show.
Hughes returned to live stand-up after a seven year break, touring the UK and Australia in 2007 with his show, The Right Side of Wrong.
