About
Over the years, award-winning guitar-playing comedian Rob Deering has cemented his reputation as one of the country’s finest stand-ups, taking six solo shows to the Edinburgh Festival, headlining all the major comedy clubs throughout Britain and taking part in Paramount Comedy's Edinburgh And Beyond live show as well as his own Charmageddon and The Rob Deering Experience national tours.
This year, Rob returned to the Edinburgh Festival with his show The Rob Deering Experience earning him a host of rave reviews alongside the return of his monthly comedy music panel game Beat This.
On TV, Rob's stand up appearances include Comedy Rocks (ITV), Sing If You Can (ITV), Celebrity Total Wipeout (BBC1), The World Comedy Tour (Granada), The World Stands Up and Edinburgh And Beyond (Paramount Comedy Channel). Rob has also presented Soapstar Superstar - Bonus Tracks (ITV2) and Strictly Dance Fever (BBC Three), appeared on Annually Retentive (BBC Three), Celebrity Juice (ITV2) and Never Mind The Full Stops (BBC Two) and on Big Brother's Big Mouth/Little Brother (Channel 4/E4) as a regular guest.
Rob has provided daily coverage for ITV’s I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! and was the winner of the Weakest Link Comedians Special on BBC1. However, he may still be best known for drinking his own wee on 99 Things To Do Before You Die (Five).
On the radio, Rob has recently co-presented The Rhod Gilbert Show on BBC Radio Wales, and been a panelist on Hot Gossip on BBC Radio 2. He has also featured on My Teenage Diary, Banter, Four From The Store, Four From The Fringe (BBC Radio 4), and Jammin' (BBC Radio 2).

In 2008, Rob began hosting the monthly stand up and music night Comedy Congregation, with headliners including Russell Howard and Stewart Lee, and has performed as a regular at Frank Skinner’s Credit Crunch Cabaret.
"As sharp and versatile as a Swiss Army knife, Rob Deering is one of the best performers currently on the circuit."
The Independent
"Uses music to brilliantly accessorise his swipes at the innate gormlessness of contemporary culture."
