Who is Mark Silcox? Meet Joe Lycett’s hilarious assistant and upcoming stand-up star Tue 21 April 2020 09:45 Liam Curtis
Daniel Santos Joe Lycett launched his very own TV show last year, taking on a range of UK companies in an attempt to avenge customers who have been treated unfairly.
The series is back on Channel 4 after a successful first season.
Whether it’s Britannia Hotels or the general British parking system, Joe Lycett’s Got Your Back is as hilarious as it is ballsy when it comes to calling out key players in the UK services industry.
However, Joe needs a trusty assistant when it comes to his detective work and this is where we introduce Mark Silcox.
Who is Mark Silcox?
Mark is a stand-up comedian who has been around the block more than just once.
He started his career in 2009 before taking a break following 60 unglamorous gigs.
However, since re-launching his career in 2013 following a runners-up finish in the new act category at Brighton Comedy Festival, Mark has gone on to bigger and better things such as The Big Asian Stand-Up and Channel 4′s An Immigrant’s Guide to.
