David Ward

Recognisable from BBC Three’s We Are Klang, David Ward is one of comedy’s most sought after presenters, writers and comedians. David’s upbeat warmth and spontaneity has made him the choice host for the heats for both BBC’s New Comedy Awards and C5’s So You Think You’re Funny? and corporates all over the UK, with a speciality in business and sports events and awards. His ability to engage with his audience and think on his feet makes him an ideal TV presenter and interviewer.

David’s Edinburgh show The Whole Truth and Nothing But… was performed to great acclaim, proving his skills as a writer, storyteller and actor in addition to his presenting and stand-up skills.

With an early professional golfing career, an invite to enter the trials for Middlesex Cricket team at a young age and a keen interest in football, David Ward is a first choice comedian to present or guest on any sports programme or event.
