Born and bred in Glasgow, Christopher Macarthur-Boyd is Scotland’s foremost purveyor of sad clever stand-up that is immaculately crafted and laugh-out-loud funny.
2024 has seen Christopher release his debut stand-up comedy special Oh No! with 800 Pound Gorilla Media and launch the hugely popular-chart topping comedy podcast Here Comes The Guillotine with Frankie Boyle and Susie McCabe. After a sell-out run at the Fringe, CMB will tour the UK and Ireland with his hit-show Scary Times this Autumn, culminating with his biggest show to date at the 1500 seater Pavilion Theatre in Glasgow.
Star of Comedy Central Live, Christopher has also co-starred in two series of BBC Scotland’s Up For It, hosted BBC Scotland’s stand-up vehicle, The Comedy Underground, appeared on Frankie Boyle’s New World Order (BBC Two) and has made multiple appearances on the Scotland Made Me series. Christopher is also a regular on BBC Scotland’s Breaking The News and has made appearances on BBC Radio 4 Extra’s Stands Up At The Fringe, BBC Radio 4’s Fred at The Stand, and Russell Kane’s Evil Genius for BBC Sounds. Christopher has written for shows such as 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown and Late Night Mash.
