Humphrey Ker is one third of ragingly up-and-coming comedy collective The Penny Dreadfuls, who've just finished recording their first series for radio comedy network BBC7. Feted at the last two Edinburgh Fringe Festivals for their Victorian sketch comedy shows, Aeneas Faversham and Aeneas Faversham Returns, teir ringing accolades can be found at their carefully pruned and ended website www.pennydreadfuls.co.uk.

He has been performing various comedy routines in Glasgow and Edinburgh since 2001.  He was with ?The Improverts? at the Bedlam Theatre,  ?The Stand Players? and did improvised comedy  with ?Whose Lunch is it Anyway?

When not logging news, he is found appearing in the background of a variety of comedy productions for stage and screen, and browsing the military history sections of bookshops.
