Find out more about 8 Out of 10 Cats team captain Jon Richardson

Self-confessed 'impossible perfectionist' Jon Richardson is the latest addition to the 8 Out of 10 Cats team.

Jon began his comedy career back in 2003, bursting onto the scene via the BBC New Comedy Talent Search. An indication of his future success was evident in 2006 when he was invited to join Alan Carr on a massive 60-date tour of the UK. The following year saw Jon receive nominations for 'Best Newcomer' at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and 'Best Breakthrough Act' at the Chortle Awards - an award he subsequently won.

Multiple critically-acclaimed shows have followed Jon's early successes and he has become a recognisable face - and voice - for his work with BBC 6 Music and the recent series of Channel 4's Stand Up for the Week.
