Lovdev Barpaga is one of the hottest circuit comedians in the UK,
"21st Century, Asian Ken Goodwin" - Steve Bennett
"Hurricane of one-liners old school comedy" - Three Weeks
"One of the most daft comics you will ever see" - Joe Lycett
Lovdev Barpaga to the rescue, then – thanks to a very funny performance from his great opening line to the end of his pun-filled set. He’s old-fashioned in both writing, with proper pub-style one-liners, and delivery. He is basically a 21st Century, Asian Ken Goodwin – the 1970s stand-up who used to reduce himself to hysterics when appearing on shows such as The Comedians. It’s considered vulgar to laugh at your own jokes these days, but Barpaga’s chuckles at gags he must have told a hundred times before prove as infectious as ebola. He’s a feelgood comedian in the finest tradition

We spoke after your show, Half Soaked. I really enjoyed it, and thought you delivered some great jokes. I really enjoy your story telling, the way you interact with the audience and the enjoyment you find from making others laugh is very apparent. I hope you continue with it!

Lovdev was amazing at this military evening event, he adapted so well to the crowd and his content was perfect for the type of audience that was watching him perform. Lovdev was definitely the highlight of the night and a good way to end this military event. Would 100% recommend him to other private/public events.

OFFICIAL PUN-KING 2017, LOVDEV IS THE BREAKFAST SHOW HOST ON FREE RADIO BIRMINGHAM AND A VERY SILLY COMEDIAN. HE’S ONE OF THE ONLY ACTS WE KNOW WHO LAUGHS AT THE JOKES ALONG WITH THE AUDIENCE (NOT INSTEAD OF THE AUDIENCE!) A VERY LIKEABLE ACT, WHO SOMEHOW MANAGES TO MAKE DAD JOKES EXTREMELY FUNNY – A BIT LIKE LES DAWSON PLAYING THE PIANO BADLY. A GENUINE SKILL FROM A VERY GOOD COMEDIAN.

Lovdev Barpaga has the kind of
effortless and gentle likeability that is
completely unique in the comedy world.
Entire crowds seem to fall in love
with him from the start and as much
for his incredible humour as for his
undeniable charm. Often laughing as
much as his audience here’s a man in
love with his job and it shows. You
can't help but laugh along with him: The
ultimate feel good comic.

Lastly was Lovdev Barpaga, the winner of the 2017 UK Pun Championships. Opening his showcase with his hilarious joke about family, the audience were hooked immediately. With his infectious laugh and subtle digs at his own culture in a tasteful way, the audience could not help but laugh at Lovdev’s incredible work. His interpretation of his African/ Indian mother and the Punjabi-speaking German Shepherd had me belly laughing for ages.

I recently booked Lovdev at a couple of gigs within a few weeks of each
other, and he nailed it at both gigs. I spend time compiling a line up that is
varied in style and content. He really did complement the bills well, and
delivered great sets at each gig. He was the 2017 UK Pun Champion, so will
give you an idea of what he does if you haven’t seen him before. I would be
very comfortable outing him on any of my bills, and intend to do so in due
course. His infectious style is guaranteed to go down well, and I highly
recommend him for sure.

Next was Lovdev Barpaga, whom we nearly saw in Edinburgh last year – but didn’t quite. He was crowned UK Pun Champion in 2017 and I can see why. His show is called Pun-Jabi, and he gave us ten minutes of puntastic hysteria. Really funny material and a very likeable guy.
