Sam Campbell Appears On Richard Osman's House Of Games

Fans of Sam Campbell have undoubtedly been looking forward to this moment for a long time. The rising Australian comedian is making his appearance on Richard Osman's House of Games. He will be a part of all the episodes airing this week, joining other guests like Cherry Healey, Anthony Ogogo, and Catherine Tyldesley.

Since clinching the Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Show in 2022, Campbell has been creating quite a stir in the UK comedy scene. On stage, he is a dynamic force, blending quirky concepts with sharp one-liners and unexpected imaginative turns, all enhanced by clever multimedia elements. His stage presence and charm are exceptional. I witnessed him win over a puzzled audience at this year’s Latitude Festival in July—check out my review here—and he delivered another fantastic performance headlining a show at Cadogan Hall just a few weeks ago, which you can read about here.

He gained recognition on Channel 4's Taskmaster, where he triumphed in series 16, competing against Julian Clary, Lucy Beaumont, Sue Perkins, and Susan Wokoma. Alongside Lucy Beaumont, he hosts a podcast called Lucy & Sam's Perfect Brains. Additionally, his name appears in the subtitle of this website.

He has recently been working on a new project called Make That Movie, which is a six-episode scripted comedy series for Channel 4. In this show, he portrays an ambitious director who travels across the country searching for ordinary individuals with unique feature film concepts. Sam and his crew then face a tight deadline as they strive to turn these ideas into a completed film within just three days.
