Katherine Frances Brand (born 13 January 1979){{citation needed|date=October 2011}} is an English actress, comedian and writer, known for her ITV2 series Katy Brand's Big Ass Show[1][2] and for Comedy Lab Slap on Channel 4.

Early life

Brand was born in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, England.[3] Brand attended St Clement Danes School, where she was in the house of Clement. Following a summer holiday in Cornwall at 13 with friends who were evangelical Christians she embraced their faith and attended church five times a week.[3]

Motivated to read theology at Keble College, Oxford,[4][5] she then lost her religious beliefs while a student.[6] Interviewed for the Evening Standard in 2007, she commented: "After about a year, I realised it was mostly rubbish and that things are never as simple as they seem when you are 13".[3]

Career

After graduation, Brand did not work as a performer, gaining employment in television production instead, but her social encounters with university contemporaries ultimately convinced her to try working as a comedian.[7]

In 2008, she collaborated with Katherine Parkinson, one of her friends from university,[8] on a BBC Radio 4 series called Mouth Trap.[9]

Brand performed in Katy Brand's Big Ass Tour 2010.[10] She also competed on Let's Dance for Sport Relief in 2010, in which she danced to Beyoncé's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)".{{citation needed|date=December 2011}} Also in 2010, she made a guest appearance on the song "Stop Giving Me Verses" by The Hoosiers, which was an attempt to break the world record for longest single ever released.{{citation needed|date=December 2011}}

In 2011, Brand took part in the BBC Learning project "Off By Heart Shakespeare", where she played the role of Titania from A Midsummer Night’s Dream and delivered a performance of the speech "Out of this wood do not desire to go".[11]

In 2011 she also guest hosted a Children in Need special episode of Never Mind the Buzzcocks.{{citation needed|date=December 2011}} In December 2012 she participated in the 2012 Christmas Special of the dance show, Strictly Come Dancing. Her partner was Anton du Beke; they came second to last.[12]

In 2014 Brand published her first novel, Brenda Monk is Funny.[13] It was crowd-funded through the publisher Unbound.[14]

Awards

In 2008 she won "Best Female Newcomer" in the 2008 British Comedy Awards.[15]
