Geoff Norcott
Explore the intersection of humour and political insight to enrich your event with Geoff Norcott, speaker, comedian, and political commentator.
Geoff Norcott is a comedy writer and stand-up comedian known for his unique political perspective. He has built a reputation as a popular live performer who stands apart from many of his peers by identifying as ‘right-leaning’. In a landscape where most comedians lean left, Geoff offers an alternative viewpoint, engaging audiences with his insights without being dogmatic.
Growing up on a council estate, Geoff's background as a working-class boy informs his comedy. He transitioned from an English teacher to a comedian, using his experiences to challenge assumptions through well-crafted jokes and stories. His work often explores the distinction between genuine beliefs and the desire to provoke controversy.
This theme is encapsulated in the title of one of his successful Edinburgh shows, "Right Leaning but Well Meaning." The Telegraph has noted that Geoff is "objectively funny regardless of your politics," highlighting his ability to connect with a diverse audience. Geoff has appeared on various popular shows, including Live at the Apollo and 8 Out of 10 Cats. His political views have led to appearances on BBC2's The Mash Report, Question Time, Daily Politics, and Radio 4’s Today programme. He has also contributed written pieces to the Telegraph and New Statesman and has participated in the BBC's diversity panel. Through his work, Geoff continues to challenge the norms of political comedy while entertaining audiences across the UK.

To book Geoff Norcott, email geoff.norcott@getapeptalk.com or call PepTalk on +44 20 3835 2929 (UK) or +1 737 888 5112 (US), and one of our speaker agents will contact you within hours to confirm Geoff's availability and speaking fee. If you can, please include your budget upfront – it helps us fast-track your request. It’s also helpful to know the date, format (virtual or in-person), location, and about your audience.
No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
