Tom Houghton

Picture a chap who's lived in the actual Tower of London—not as a prisoner, but because his dad was only the head of the entire UK Armed Forces. That's the world of Tom Houghton, the delightfully posh comedian who's made a career out of making the seemingly unrelatable utterly hilarious.

From boarding school at age six to barracks around the globe, Tom's ultra-privileged upbringing could've gone either way, but fortunately for us, he chose comedy. After cutting his teeth with improv legends The Noise Next Door, he struck out solo in 2016 and hasn't looked back. His roguish tales and cheeky songs have taken him on sold-out international tours, supporting Milton Jones twice, and even appearing on Netflix's The Circle Season 5.

But it's online where Tom truly exploded—his viral videos have racked up over 8.4 million TikTok likes, asking the nation's most important questions: "Do you ski?" and "Do you scuba?" He's graced Comedy Central, hosted Very British Problems, and proved that whether you're upper crust or decidedly not, a great gag is a great gag. A rising star on the Comedy Boat since 2024, Tom brings warmth, wit, and just the right amount of aristocratic absurdity to every performance.
