Who is Ed Gamble?
Ed Gamble is one of the most prominent faces in British comedy. Born on March 10, 1986, in London, he began his comedy career while studying at Durham University. It was here that he met fellow comedians like Nish Kumar, forming a creative cohort that would go on to dominate the UK scene.
Gamble first gained attention as part of the double act Peacock and Gamble with Ray Peacock. He soon established himself as a solo performer, known for his regular appearances on Mock the Week, where his loud, posh, and slightly indignant persona made him a fan favourite. His career reached new heights when he won the ninth series of Taskmaster in 2019, showcasing his competitive streak and quick wit to a massive audience.
He has since become a major player in the podcasting world. He hosts the Taskmaster Podcast, dissecting episodes of the show, and co-hosts The Traitors: Uncloaked. However, his most significant project is undoubtedly Off Menu, the food podcast he hosts with James Acaster. The show, where guests choose their dream meal, has become a cultural juggernaut, leading to live tours and cementing Gamble's status as a "foodie" comedian. He is also a judge on the BBC's Great British Menu, proving his culinary credentials are genuine.
Ed Gamble's comedy style
Ed Gamble's comedy style is defined by high energy, volume, and mock indignation. He is a loud performer, often using shouting and exaggerated anger to great comedic effect. He plays up his "posh" background but contrasts it with a self-deprecating awareness of his own ridiculousness.
A central theme of his comedy is his health. Gamble was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of 13. He has mined this experience for comedy gold, particularly in his special Blood Sugar. He destigmatizes the condition by finding the humour in the daily reality of insulin pumps, blood sugar lows (hypos), and the ignorance of others. He turns a serious medical condition into a source of relatable, often hilarious, anecdotes.
Another key pillar of his act is his love of Heavy Metal. Despite his clean-cut appearance, Gamble is a die-hard metalhead. He frequently jokes about the disconnect between his look and his musical taste, and the absurdity of the heavy metal subculture.
Since the success of Off Menu, food has also become a major part of his routine. He discusses his "greedy boy" tendencies, his opinions on restaurant etiquette, and his hatred of cauliflower cheese with a passion that resonates with food lovers everywhere. His style is accessible, articulate, and relentlessly funny.

2018-2020: The Breakthrough. Launching Off Menu in 2018 changed his career trajectory. Winning Taskmaster in 2019 introduced him to a mainstream audience. His tour Blizzard and the special Blood Sugar (released on Amazon Prime) showcased his maturation as a stand-up.
2021-Present: The Household Name. Gamble is now a ubiquitous presence on UK TV and radio. His tour Electric was a massive hit. He hosts multiple successful podcasts and has transitioned into presenting roles. In 2026, his move to tour the US and headline the Royal Albert Hall signals his intent to become a global comedy star.
