RHOD GILBERT

Welsh sensation Rhod Gilbert is one of the UK's leading comedy talents. He has enjoyed many successful years as a star of television and radio and continues to uphold his esteemed reputation as a seasoned host, prolific writer and first-class live performer... Rhod is now touring his latest show Rhod Gilbert & the Giant Grapefruit, which takes in over 140 dates across the UK and Ireland and is set to run until November 2025... Rhod also produced, and starred in, Rhod Gilbert vs Kilimanjaro, which followed him leading a trek to Africa's highest peak in aid of Velindre Cancer Centre. There was no camera crew, and never any intention to broadcast the journey, but, as a special one-off feature, BBC One Wales transmitted the footage captured by Rhod and his companions on their extraordinary adventure. Rhod continues to be a proud patron of Velindre and has since lead fundraising treks in Peru, Nepal, Patagonia and Cuba. This year, he will tackle North Africa's highest peak - Mount Toubkal..
