NICK DOODY
You need no better reference for Nick Doody's talents than the fact that he supported the later, great Bill Hicks on his final UK tour at the personal invitation of the great man himself.

Nick's radio and TV credits include contributing to shows on BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio 5 Live and 'The Mark Thomas Comedy Product' on Channel 4.
