Engage your audience with humor and insightful commentary on current events with Miles Jupp, speaker, comedian, and television presenter.
Miles Jupp started performing stand-up comedy in 2000 when he won both So You Think You’re Funny and Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year. He became a regular performer on BBC Scotland’s Live Floor Show and earned a nomination for the Perrier Best Newcomer award for his debut solo show, Gentlemen Prefer Brogues.
He has contributed to many Radio 4 shows, such as Arthur Smith’s Balham Bash, The Vote Now Show, and Loose Ends. He also created Miles Jupp’s Real World and presents It’s Not What You Know. In 2015, he became the resident host of The News Quiz, taking over from long-standing Sandi Toksvig. Miles writes and stars in In and Out of the Kitchen on Radio 4, which premiered its fourth series and debuted as a television series in 2015.
Miles returned to stand-up in 2007 with a new show, Every Day Rage and Dinner Party Chit Chat. He continued to write and perform at the Edinburgh Fringe until 2010 when he presented the critically acclaimed Fibber in the Heat. The show toured in 2011 and 2012, culminating in a sell-out performance in London’s West End and a book release published by Ebury Press in May 2012.
On television, Miles continues to work as a comedian and presenter, appearing in such shows as Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow, Have I Got News For You, Mock the Week, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Argumental, Just a Minute, Live At The Apollo, and Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle. As an actor, he co-starred in the award-winning BBC2 sitcom Rev. He’s also well known for performing in Gary: Tank Commander, The Thick of It, and the children’s BBC show Balamory.
Miles’ film credits have gone from strength to strength, appearing in international features such as The Monuments Men, directed by George Clooney, The Riot Club, Last Sparks of Sundown, Rosewater, Sherlock Holmes, Made in Dagenham, Johnny English: Reborn, The Look of Love, and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
In 2012, Miles made his National Theatre debut in Alan Bennett’s People and in 2015 went on to perform in the theatre's critically acclaimed production of Rules for Living alongside Steven Mangan. Miles has recently published his debut novel, History. Richard Osman commented, "The funniest man in Britain has written a wonderful novel. Rejoice!".

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.
