Wes Packer: Winner 2006
Since making his stand-up debut courtesy of Poncho Comedy Club's open-mic night in August 2005 Wes has quickly evolved into a talented stand-up comedian and a favourite on the Cardiff comedy circuit. Comfortable with 10, 20 and 30 minute slots, Wes is forging a reputation as an exciting and fearless opening act.
With topics including the dangers of dogging, sex with transsexuals and why he should be allowed to smoke in hospitals, Wes has been mistaken by some for a bit of a 'lad', and can usually be found talking about the things that he should be ashamed or embarassed about, but isn't.
