Bedford School was pleased to welcome Patrick Monahan as the guest speak at the 2013 house drama competition. He was winner of ITV’s Show Me The Funny and has made appearances on BBC’s Sport Relief and ITV2’s Fake Reaction. At the time of the competition, he was on a three-month UK tour with his show The Hug Train. Patrick started off on the glamorous Irish/Iranian/Geordie circuit in his native homeland of the north-east of England before being invited to perform all over the world. He has performed at the Adelaide Fringe Comedy Festival 2011 as well as in Dubai, Doha, Abu Dhabi, Barbados, St Lucia, St Vincent, Spain, France, Luxembourg, Estonia, Ireland and Germany. He has also performed at the Edinburgh International Festival and various venues and comedy clubs up and down the UK, including the Royal Albert Hall in London. Patrick’s favourite play of the evening was that performed by Ashburnham.
