Josie has appeared in Skins (including the forthcoming new series), which she also writes for. In demand both here and abroad, 2008 saw Josie performing sell-out shows at the Comedy Central workspace in Los Angeles, the Adelaide Fringe, the New Zealand Comedy Festival and the Melbourne Comedy Festival where she was nominated for the Barry Award. On top of this she was invited to perform Trying Is Good at the prestigious Montreal Comedy Festival this July. She also has two extensive sell-out UK tours under her belt and is still only in her mid-twenties. Her distinctive voice, boundless enthusiasm and innovative shows have made her a favourite among comedians and audiences alike. In May this year she was selected by Stewart Lee to perform in a series of events entitled The 10 Best Stand-ups in the World... Ever.
After the comedy world started to take notice of Josie in 1999 at the tender age of 17, when she won the BBC New Comedy Award and was runner-up for So You Think You’re Funny?, Josie decided to put her stand-up on hold to go to University. In 2004 she was selected to appear in the reputable Edinburgh Festival Big Value Show, creating a buzz with her obsessive and ridiculous stories, leaving audiences smitten with her innocent wonder and loveable madness. In 2005 she performed at Edinburgh in An Audience with Dan and Josie and supported Stewart Lee on a nationwide tour. In 2006 she won the prestigious If.Comedy Newcomer award for her first solo show, Kindness & Exuberance.
Josie is a regular on Radio 1's Switch show with her 'confuse the teacher' feature. She has been part of Robin Ince’s ‘Book Club Tour’, a guest on Never Mind the Buzzcocks (BBC2), Jon Ronson on... (Radio 4), Out to Lunch (Radio 2), Big Brothers Big Mouth (E4) and has performed in 28 Acts in 28 Minutes and Four on the Floor (Radio 4). Other TV and radio credits include The Milk Run (BBC Radio One), The Last Chancers (C4) and Brain Candy (BBC 3).
