Lee Ridley, known by his stage name the Lost Voice Guy, is an English stand-up comedian born on December 31, 1980, in Consett, United Kingdom. He has been disabled since early childhood due to cerebral palsy, which left him unable to speak. Ridley gained widespread recognition after winning the 12th series of Britain's Got Talent in 2018, making him the first stand-up comedian to use a communication aid during performances.
He began his stand-up career in February 2012 and has since made significant contributions to the comedy scene, including winning the BBC New Comedy Award. Ridley is also an author, having published a book titled "I'm Only In It for the Parking: Life and Laughter from the Priority Seats."
Ridley is active on social media, with a presence on platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook. He continues to perform and engage with audiences, using his unique perspective and humor to challenge perceptions of disability.
