//// Some info about Jim ////

After his triumphant and critically acclaimed 6th solo show at the Edinburgh Festival’s 1000 seater McEwan Hall, where he sold over 17,000 tickets! Garnered six 5-star reviews and ten 4-star reviews, Jim is now one of the ‘must-see’ comedians in the world right now! The DVD ‘Alcoholocaust’ was released by Comedy Central UK over Christmas 2010 and still sits nice in the top 20 DVD ‘stand up’ sales. It was shot in July that year at the Lyric Theatre Shaftsbury Avenue and runs for 120 minutes showcases Jim at his comedy best!

‘Alcoholocaust’ includes some of Jim’s favourite wild antics over the past year and as always Jim’s material is set in reality, which is what provides him with his trademark brutally frank style. You will also hear about a hilarious and often touching true story about his friend’s severely disabled brother plus Jim’s traditional pet hates - religion & idiots.

Over the last two years Jim has been making his mark on the U.S.A, where he now resides in Venice Beach. He is currently making his own show for Comedy Central US entitled ‘The Jim Jefferies Show’ and has screen-tested alongside Hollywood stars Drew Barrymore and Justin Long amongst others. His own one-hour HBO special ‘I Swear To God’ has given him huge success, following in the footsteps of comic legends Eddie Izzard and Billy Connolly who were also awarded one-hour specials. Cementing his place as one of the biggest names in comedy around the globe. Last year Jim was the only international comic to perform his own show at the new ‘Just For Laughs Festival’ in Chicago alongside comic luminaries that include Ellen DeGeneres and Jimmy Fallon.

Jim can currently be seen as the face of Comedy Central UK’s ‘Grouchy Young Men’ and has appeared on virtually every other channel… BBC1’s ‘Have I Got News For You’ (where he flirted outrageously with, and was turned down by, host Moira Stewart!), BBC 2’s ‘Never Mind The Buzzcocks’, ITV’s ‘Comedy Rock’s with Jason Manford’, Ch4’s ‘8 Out of 10 Cat’s’, E4’s ‘Big Brother’s Celebrity Hijack’ and ‘Big Brothers Big Mouth’, Sky 1’s ‘Premier League All-Stars’ (playing for Fulham) and Paramount’s ‘Class of ’97’ alongside Simon Pegg, Matt Lucas, David Walliams and Mighty Boosh. In America Jim has hosted HBO’s ‘Live at Gotham’ and has appeared on ‘The Tonight Show with Jay Leno’ and had a strong debate with hapless host Chelsea Lately.
