Male comedy actor

Age 40s

Down-to-earth & engaging. Sarcastic, sharp wit & great timing. Hugely flexible with an endless range.
Dave Lamb never wanted to be a cult voiceover artist. So tell that to the 1 million Facebook fans who have declared that the narrator of Channel 4's Come Dine With Me is a legend.
