Tez Ilyas is a icon in British comedy. He gained recognition in 2015 with his debut stand-up show, TEZ Talks, which sold out at the Soho Theatre. This success led to a Radio 4 series based on the show, which was quickly renewed for a second series. In 2016, his follow-up show, Made in Britain, also sold out at the Edinburgh Fringe, receiving critical acclaim and resulting in a nationwide tour in 2017. His third show, Teztify, continued this trend, offering a mix of topical humour and engaging performances to enthusiastic audiences.
Tez has made numerous appearances on popular television programmes, including Live at The Apollo, The Last Leg, Mock the Week, and Live From the BBC. He has also featured on shows like The Chris Ramsey Show, Man Like Mobeen, and Roast Battle, showcasing his versatility and appeal across different formats. His Channel 4 comedy Blap Bounty became the most-watched show in the strand's ten-year history. In 2019, he launched his own satirical sketch series, The Tez O’Clock Show, which received positive reviews. In 2020, Tez released his first stand-up special, Teztify, recorded live at the Southbank Centre and available exclusively on YouTube. The following year, he announced a new nationwide tour titled Populist.
