Essex-born ex-soldier turned comedian Pat Smith has swapped barracks for the stage, armed with a sharp wit and a cheeky grin. A man clearly drawn to careers where avoiding bombs is key, Pat has made waves in comedy since stepping up to the mic. He’s racked up wins at top competitions like Leicester Comedy Festival’s Laughter Craft Gong, Frog and Bucket's Beat The Frog and Up The Creek’s The Blackout.

 

He also claimed victory on Laughter Class, comedy's answer to X-Factor, run by Ustreme TV. His success led to Pat Smith: LIVE, a 30-minute stand-up special commissioned by Ustreme TV, as well as a spot supporting Jim Davidson on tour and subsequent appearances on Ustreme's Friday Night Comedy Live.

 

Pat’s online skits have gone viral, amassing millions of views and earning features on Voxi mobile and BBC Upload on Radio Essex. 

​

His rise has grabbed headlines in outlets like Chortle and The Sunday Express. Now touring the UK, Pat proves Essex isn’t all about TOWIE—it’s about being “stupid in other ways” too. With raw charm and hilarious tales about family, friends, and life, Pat will have you laughing from the get-go.
