PepTalk Speech Bubble
Author of A Work In Progress and trained psychotherapist
Sue Cleaver is best known for her 25-year portrayal of Eileen Grimshaw on Coronation Street, a role that made her one of British television’s most recognisable and trusted faces. Spending decades at the heart of a much-loved series has given her a rare instinct for storytelling, timing, and emotional connection, skills that translate naturally to live audiences.

Alongside her acting career, Sue has become a familiar and popular presence on unscripted television. As a regular panellist on Loose Women and a memorable contestant on I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, she has shown the same honesty, humour, and ease that viewers respond to on screen. She is also the author of A Work In Progress, published by Bloomsbury, in which she reflects candidly on life, change, and personal growth, informed by her three years of training as a psychotherapist.
Sue brings this warmth, clarity, and a relaxed sense of humour to every event.

Equally comfortable handling light-hearted moments or more reflective conversations, Sue has a natural ability to put people at ease and draw them in. Her experience navigating public life while staying grounded gives her an engaging, down-to-earth perspective that resonates across audiences and generations.

Audiences respond to Sue’s ability to blend entertainment with substance. They come away with a renewed appreciation for open conversation, relatable insights into life’s challenges, and a sense of connection that feels genuine rather than rehearsed. Her appearances are inclusive, relaxed, and personal, shaped by decades of working with stories that matter.

Book Sue to bring authenticity, humour, and hard-won insight to your event through someone who truly understands connection.

Have all the speakers on the website previously worked with PepTalk?

Not necessarily. While the speakers listed on our website may not have worked with PepTalk in the past, they are recognized professionals in the industry and known to engage in similar events and engagements. We work with a wide variety of speaker agents and talent agencies to ensure we have the best selection of speakers, hosts, comedians and entertainers available.

Can I request a speaker to send a personal greeting?

We do not accommodate requests for birthday messages or any other personal, non-commercial contact with the speakers, comedians or entertainers.

How much do speakers and comedians cost?

We work with speakers across a variety of fee ranges, giving you the flexibility to choose someone who fits your event's needs. Virtual keynote fees in the UK and Europe typically start at £2,000, while in-person top-tier speakers can reach £25,000. In the US, virtual in-person fees range from $5,000 to over $100,000, depending on the speaker and format, such as after-dinner talks, conference keynotes, Q&As, or podcasts. Comedians generally start at £1,500 or $2,000 for a 20-minute set.

Our goal is to help you find the speaker who best matches your event’s goals and budget. We take the time to understand your event, objectives, and audience to recommend the right fit. The most expensive option isn’t always the best one, and our priority is finding the ideal speaker or expert for your needs; not the highest-priced one.

Reach out for personalised recommendations and detailed information on specific speaker fees. We’re here to offer a tailored service and are always happy to discuss your unique requirements!
