Ian ‘Sludge’ Lees - Following a well-trodden path, Ian started his showbusiness life with two top comedy showgroups of the 70’s - "The Montanas" and "Light Fantastic" - before making the break as a solo artiste.

‘Sludge’, as he is affectionately known in the business, was twice voted Midlands ‘Comedian Of the Year’.

Sludge was a regular member of the Tizwas cast and followed this with regular appearances on shows such as ‘The Comedians’, ‘Summertime Special’ and ‘Live From Her Majesty’s’, to name but a few.

Recently Sludge has been one of the stars of Carlton's "The Performers" and in 2006 toured the UK with Frank Carson and Norman Collier.  A very funny guy
