Lloyd supported Jack Whitehall on the entirety of his ‘Stood Up’ UK and Ireland arena tour of 2019-2020.
Since his last critically acclaimed live tour ‘All Rounder’, Lloyd has fronted BBC Three’s Can You Beat The Bookies? which received a four star review from The Guardian, co-hosted 10 part action comedy gameshow series Flinch for Netflix and been seen as regular host of Sky’s flagship show Soccer AM. He also featured in the Pay the Penalty Challenge where he attempted to save 2,020 penalties taken by Sam Quek in one day, and The Battle of the Channels Boat Race for Sport Relief (BBC).
Lloyd has also acted in It’s A Sin (Channel 4/HBO Max), Apple TV’s much celebrated comedy series Ted Lasso and BBC One’s hit sitcom Not Going Out. He will also feature in Paul Dood’s Deadly Lunch Break (Belstone Pictures) and Mark Wahlberg’s Infinite (Paramount Pictures) for film later this year.
Other recent TV appearances include Jonathan Ross’ Comedy Club (ITV), 8 Out Of 10 Cats (E4), Celebability (ITV2), Richard Osman’s House of Games (BBC Two), Comedy Central Live at The Comedy Store (Comedy Central), The Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV2), Comedy Games Night (Comedy Central/Channel 5) The Premier League Show (BBC Two) and even Songs of Praise (BBC Two).
A spokesperson for the tour said: “Expect jokes mixed with jaw dropping singing. In the words of The Sunday Post it’s ‘uplifting stand-up that’ll have you smiling for days.’”
Lloyd’s previous All Rounder tour saw additional dates added due to large demand. Lloyd has supported both Jack Whitehall and Rob Beckett on their tours including at venues such as Liverpool Echo, Newcastle Metro, Manchester, Leeds and Wembley Arenas.
He has also created and appeared in YouTube series Premier League Fan Reactions videos, with the weekly videos regularly reaching upwards of 100K views. He also appeared in FIFA: Quest for the Best (EA Sports/Sky Sports).
As a singer, Lloyd can often be heard performing with the choirs of Westminster Abbey, St George’s Chapel – Windsor Castle and various other London groups, and subsequently has an incredible knowledge and passion for the UK’s finest Cathedrals and choral music.
Review information:
“Disarmingly good” Dominic Maxwell, The Times
“Lloyd bounces off the audience and has everyone laughing along with him. This is an hour of uplifting stand-up that’ll have you smiling for days. A warm, relatable and hilarious show” The Sunday Post
“Lloyd Griffith has to be my favourite find from this show. It’s not often you get a comic and a choirboy rolled into one, and he’s seriously talented in both areas” Leicester Mercury
“What is evident from the outset is that Griffith is both bursting with talent. He is a funny, charming, self-effacing comic who very obviously gains great joy from making people laugh. It is evident in the way he feeds off the audience” Joe.co.uk
