Biography

Ivo Charles Graham (born in Tokyo on 5 September 1990) is an English stand-up comedian and comedy writer. Ivo attended day and boarding schools in Australia and the UK, including Eton College, as his family moved around for his father's work.

He studied French and Russian literature at University College, Oxford, graduating in 2012.

He was the youngest ever winner of So You Think You're Funny in 2009 and was subsequently signed by the stand up talent agency Off The Kerb.

He was nominated for Best Newcomer at the 2010 Chortle Awards and, in 2019, his show The Game of Life was nominated as Best Show in the Dave Edinburgh Comedy Awards.

His television appearances include The Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV2), Live at the Apollo, Mock the Week, Live from the BBC, Russell Howard's Stand Up Central, As Yet Untitled, Virtually Famous, Sweat the Small Stuff, and The Dog Ate My Homework.

He has also appeared on Richard Osman's House of Games and Have I Got News For You.

Ivo regularly performs at the Edinburgh Fringe, and his shows Binoculars (2013), Bowties and Johnnies (2014) and No Filter (2015) all transferred to London for runs at the Soho Theatre.

His 2017 show Educated Guess garnered good reviews and sold out, prompting several extra shows to be added, and were performed at the Soho Theatre in October.

He has also supported Josh Widdicombe on tour.

In late 2021, he co-presented the Dave travelogue British as Folk, alongside fellow comedians Darren Harriott and Fern Brady.
