Andy Parsons is a prominent British comedian. As a key member of London's Comedy Store Cutting Edge team and a former regular on Mock the Week, he has established himself as a prolific performer. His career began with Spitting Image, where he became a main writer, leading to various television opportunities. He has appeared on BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC Two's Never Write Off the Germans, and has been involved in multiple series of Parsons & Naylor's Pull-Out Sections. After nine series on Mock the Week, Andy left the show in 2015, advocating for a female comedian to take his place.

His solo shows have garnered acclaim from both audiences and critics. In 2015, Andy founded the Slackivist campaign group, which brings together MPs, journalists, and comedians to discuss current affairs, often ending with a visit to the bar.
