Private Parts

Welcome back to Private Parts, the podcast where nothing is off limits.

We’re back with another Friday episode and what a way to end the working week. We’re joined by the hilarious comedian turned poet, Tim Key. You’ll know him from Peep Show, Alan Partridge's Mid Morning Matters and Taskmaster. 

Tim first appeared on the comedy circuit after he pretended to be a student at The University of Cambridge in order to get into Footlights, which took him to the Edinburgh Fringe. He then started out as a stand-up comedian, and after a few bad shows, retreated and started writing poems. 

He speaks to Jamie and Tom about all of this and more, including where his love of comedy came from, and tells the story of when he and Jamie became the very best of friends. Plus, he gives us an exclusive reading from his new anthology of poems ‘Chapters’, which is available for pre-order here. It is due for release on 6th November.

Tim’s poem playing cards are available to purchase here.
