Phil Lucas is like a child with special powers trapped in the body of a 42 year old man. In the best possible way.”

  • Nathan Kail – co-founder of Giraffe Comedy Magazine

  • “Phil is an original and by that I mean a genius. His ability to not only write outstanding poetry is coupled with an amazing sense of humour that makes me laugh out loud. His playful originality always surprises and delights.”

  • Aidan Goatley – comedian/author

  • “Embracing seemingly inconsequential tabloid minutiae and pursuing his cause with foolhardy exuberance, Phil Lucas tilts at socially constructed windmill’s with unrivalled gusto. A modern day Don Quixote; erudite, loveable and hilarious, he’s either a savant or an idiot. Probably both.”

  • Nathan Wood – radio presenter

  • “I wish I’d never left him.” *

  • Wendy Craig – actress

  • “In an overcrowded landscape where people try so hard to be oblique and different, Mr Lucas is genuinely unique. Funny, sweet, charming, but with playful teeth, he has become my benchmark for beautifully funny. Phillip Michael The Battleship Potempkin Lucas, a grateful nation salutes you.”

  • David Jordan – comedian/musician

  • “Mr Lucas is indeed a funny man.”

  • The Huffington Post

  • “You should catch Phil Lucas before he’s arrested on a jumped-up terrorism charge.”

  • b3ta.com

  • He’s very, very funny.

  • Jeremy Vine – Broadcaster

  • A man who would be clinically depressed if Photoshop and PowerPoint didn’t exist.

  • Alex Martini – Promoter and Comedian

  • “Phil Lucas looks like he has been forged in the soil of India.”

  • Kate Garraway – TV Presenter and Angel

  • “Everything he does makes me laugh so hard I break something, or someone. He is a mind-achingly hilarious man.”

  • Rachel Parris – comedian/musician

  • “If Phil Lucas had an annual out, I’d buy it in a shot – he’s THAT good.”

  • Max Dowler – comedian and impressionist

  • “A poet of great wit and warmth; capable of summoning the 1970s from a vision of buses or making you laugh at loud with observations on the shallowness of modern life. Phil’ s work recalls Betjeman, John Hegley and Roger McGough while retaining its own, very distinct voice.”

  • Mark Barrowcliffe – author

  • “Phil Lucas is the Da Vinci of frippery. His mind is the whack-a-mole in the seaside funfair of pop culture.”

  • Dan Fardell – comedian

  • Guy Lloyd – radio and TV presenter

  • “I love Phil Lucas so much I wish he was my dad. So much so that, after great expense, I’ve managed to legally put myself up for adoption. Fingers crossed that Phil snaps me up before Madonna does.”

  • Chris Stewart – comedian

  • I love him.

  • Annabel Giles – Author/Broadcaster

  • Phil is a legend, an actual legend, as opposed to the overused expression.

  • Sam Stone – comedian
