An Australian stand-up comedian and author who mostly performs in the UK. He is known for his aggressive stage performance and offensive material.

Furthermore, he was the conductor of masterclasses in stand-up (again on ITV). He has also appeared on ITV2's Comedy Cuts. He has also performed at Montreal and South African comedy festivals. He first appeared at the Edinburgh Fringe in 1996, hosting The Comedy Zone showcase of new acts, and performing in his debut solo show 6pm Time To Get Up For Work. He has returned to the Fringe every year since, except for 1999, and in 2007 won its top prize, the if.comedy award for his show So I Suppose This Is Offensive Now at the 2007 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

Brendon Burns: So I Suppose This Is Offensive Now
Writer
