Rosie Jones is a comedian, writer, and actress known for her humour and advocacy, particularly in disability representation. She began her career writing for panel shows before moving into stand-up comedy.
Her performances at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, notably "Inspiration" in 2017 and "Fifteen Minutes" in 2018, received critical acclaim. The latter explored themes of identity and featured a hypothetical "able-bodied Rosie."

As a writer, Rosie has contributed to the Netflix series Sex Education and co-created the Channel 4 comedy short Disability Benefits, part of their 2022 Comedy Blaps collection. Her work highlights the importance of disability representation in media.
In acting, she made her prime-time debut in Silent Witness and has had a recurring role in BBC One's Casualty. She has also appeared in series like Shakespeare & Hathaway: Private Investigators and Might & Magic: Era of Chaos.
Rosie is a strong advocate for disability inclusion and received an honorary doctorate from the University of Huddersfield in 2022. Her children's book series, The Amazing Edie Eckhart, promotes positive representations of disability.
Currently, she is on her debut international tour, Triple Threat, following successful runs in the UK and Melbourne International Comedy Festival in 2023. She will also host the comedy game show Out of Order on Comedy Central and participate in the eighteenth series of Taskmaster.

Something we've not covered here?
Rosie Jones structures her stand-up sets around her lived experience of cerebral palsy, using personal narrative to reframe disability as a source of comedy rather than sympathy. Her Edinburgh Fringe shows demonstrate this format directly, with Fifteen Minutes (2018) built around a hypothetical alternate version of herself without the condition, anchoring the material in a concrete comedic premise.
Rosie Jones performs stand-up comedy, with credits including Edinburgh Festival Fringe runs (“Inspiration”, “Fifteen Minutes”), her debut international tour “Triple Threat”, and television appearances on Live at the Apollo and 8 Out of 10 Cats, suiting corporate and entertainment events seeking comedy with disability representation. She co-created the Channel 4 Comedy Blaps short Disability Benefits, wrote for the Netflix series Sex Education, and is set to host the Comedy Central game show Out of Order.
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.
