Jay Lafferty

Sought after for her on point satirical views Jay Lafferty has become a regular face on BBC Scotland’s television channel. It was a performance on BBC’s Breaking The News that saw Lafferty hit the front page of The New York Times for her on point description of Theresa May’s catastrophic handling of the Brexit deal. Her Edinburgh Fringe 2019 hit solo show Jay Lafferty: Jammy was made into a BBC Radio Scotland three part series - Jay’s Jammy. In the new normal she was one of the few comics who performed a full Edinburgh Fringe run in 2021 with Jay Lafferty: Blether.
In 2022, she was chosen as one of the summer presenters for BBC Scotlands flagship afternoon show. Jay shone while interviewing guests including Alan Carr, Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett. After being crowned Best Compere at the Scottish Comedy Awards in 2019, in 2022 Jay was nominated for Best Compere in the Chortle Comedy Awards narrowly missing out to TV favourite Zoe Lyons. Jay also cemented her spot as the host of the Edinburgh Fringe cult late night show Late N Live at the Gilded Balloon.
In 2023 Jay took on a new challenge working with Dan Scott from Clanfit to develop a brand new solo show that fused comedy with pole dancing. Bahookie opened at the Edinburgh Fringe 2023 to sold out audience and rave reviews. The show was listed in the British Comedy Guides best reviewed shows at the Edinburgh Fringe. Jay continues to develop her reputation as a show anchor and is now a guest host for Breaking The News.
Bio
Jay has been performing comedy since 2005 working all over the UK as well as performing in New York, Los Angeles, Toronto, Reykjavik and Amsterdam. An experienced compere and stand-up Jay has an easy manner on stage, instantly connecting with her audience - whether a rowdy group of stags and hens or a serene ladies luncheon.
Jay’s friendly and relaxed persona allows her to get a way with the darker jokes that punctuate her material. Her comedy has been described as chocolate covered hand grenades. Don’t be mistaken Jay’s personality can melt butter - sometimes by using a flamethrower. Clever material delivered with effortless charm and packing a bite every bit as bad as its bark.
An experienced writer and performer Jay has worked on a number of hit BBC Scotland and BBC Four radio shows and one of the longest running panelist on Radio Scotland's Breaking TheNews. Jay also secured a small part on Season 2 of The Comedy Unit’s hit BBC1 show Scot Squad.
Jay's Debut Full Fringe Run solo show, Besom (2017) ranked Number 5 in the Top 10 best reviewed comedy shows at the Edinburgh Fringe 2017. In 2019 Jay was crowned Best Compere at the Scottish Comedy Awards and in 2022 Jay was nominated for Best Compere in the Chortle Comedy Awards.
