Early life[edit]

Jack Peter Benedict Whitehall was born at Portland Hospital in London's West End on 7 July 1988,[2][3] the son of actress Hilary Amanda Jane Whitehall (née Isbister; stage name Hilary Gish) and television producer Michael John Whitehall. Whitehall Senior has frequently featured in his son's television programmes. Jack Whitehall has described his father, a staunch Conservative, as "Tory with a capital T", noting that in the first election he was eligible to vote in, his father impersonated him via postal vote to ensure he would vote for the Conservative Party.[4] Whitehall also has a younger sister and brother.[5][6]

Whitehall is a descendant of Welsh lawyer Thomas Jones Phillips (not to be confused with Mayor Thomas Phillips[7]), who was a major opponent of the Newport Rising of 1839.[8][9] He had two godfathers: actors Nigel Havers and Richard Griffiths.[10] He attended Tower House School in London's East Sheen area, where he was a schoolmate of actor Robert Pattinson.[11] He has often joked that he resented Pattinson for taking all the best acting roles in the school plays.[12] Whitehall auditioned for the title character in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001), but the casting director was unimpressed with him because he had not read the book.[13][14] His parents sent him to boarding school at the age of eight.[13] He was educated at the Dragon School in Oxford and then Marlborough College. He took a gap year in which he decided to pursue a career in stand-up comedy. He attended the University of Manchester to study History of Art, dropping out after two terms.[15][16]

Stand-up comedy[edit]

Whitehall started performing stand-up comedy at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe at the Pleasance Theatre's Comedy Reserve showcase. He had previously taken a sketch show to the Fringe called Comic Abuse. Whitehall won the Amused Moose Laugh Off 2007, and was runner-up in the Laughing Horse New Act of The Year competition, a finalist in So You Think You're Funny?,[50] and winner of the Charlie Harthill Special Reserve in the same year. He was also nominated for 'Best Newcomer' in the 2008 Chortle Awards, and was a finalist in the Hackney Empire New Act of the Year.

In August 2009, Whitehall performed his first solo stand-up show, Nearly Rebellious, at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The same year, he was nominated for 'Best Newcomer' at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards.[51] In September 2009, Whitehall was accused of stealing one of Stewart Lee's stand-up routines for his critically acclaimed Nearly Rebellious show.[52][53] Lee had performed the joke, which deals with the subject of life after walking in space, at the Montreal Just for Laughs comedy festival in the 1990s, and was filmed for TV by the Comedy Network.[54] When Whitehall recited his version of the routine at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2009, he was described by an otherwise favourable review for Metro as "repeating" Lee's sketch "almost verbatim".[55]

On 20 October 2009, Robbie Williams was accused of stealing one of Whitehall's jokes in his much-publicised "comeback" performance as part of the BBC's electric proms at the Camden Roundhouse.[56] When Whitehall originally performed the one-liner, which plays on the phrasal verb "to look down on someone", it was voted the fifth best joke of the year's Edinburgh Fringe in a poll conducted by TV channel Dave.[56]

On 20 June 2010, a photograph of Whitehall appeared in the News of the World, purportedly showing him in possession of cocaine in Manchester.[57][58][59] He quickly issued an apology for his behaviour, but did not confirm or deny the allegations.[57][58] Later that same week, Whitehall appeared on the debut episode of Stand Up for the Week[57] alongside fellow comedian Patrick Kielty,[58] who took the opportunity to mockingly refer to the article.[60]

On 30 March 2010, Whitehall took part in Channel 4's Comedy Gala, a benefit show held in aid of Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital, filmed live at The O2 Arena in London and broadcast on 5 April. Whitehall then appeared at the Montreal Just for Laughs comedy festival in July, and returned to the Edinburgh Fringe in August with his second solo show, entitled Learning Difficulties. On 27 September, Whitehall appeared at the Apollo, Hammersmith in front of a full audience for a recording of the sixth series of Live at the Apollo, which aired on 17 December. Also in 2010, he was picked out by Variety as one of their prestigious ten stars of the future.

In January 2011, Whitehall was nominated by the British Comedy Awards for 'Best Comedy Breakthrough'.[61] On 12 March, he set a new Guinness World Records title together with Dara Ó Briain and Jon Richardson, for hosting the 'Highest stand-up comedy gig in the world', on a British Airways flight in support of Comic Relief.[62] On 24 May, Whitehall took part in the second annual Channel 4's Comedy Gala, which aired on 10 June.

In August 2011, Whitehall performed two shows at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. His third solo stand-up show in succession, Let's Not Speak of This Again. He also performed a series of four stand-up shows with his father Michael Whitehall, called Backchat,[63] which was also completely sold out. Both received very favourable reviews.

He appeared in the first series of Dave's One Night Stand for the comedy network Dave. Recording a stand up performance at London's Haymarket Theatre. The show featured special guests as support.

In November 2011, Whitehall performed two sell out solo shows at the Hammersmith Apollo. These shows completed his debut national tour Let's Not Speak of This Again. Both shows again received highly favourable reviews.[64]

On 30 December 2012, Whitehall appeared on The Big Fat Quiz of the Year, during which he made a joke about Queen Elizabeth II. On the next day, complaints were submitted about the joke to Ofcom.[65] Ensuing media speculation led to the National Television Awards stating publicly that Whitehall would not be forced to resign from presenting the awards a short time later.[66]

Whitehall took part in "A Show for Gareth Richards" at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2023, which was staged by fellow comedians Mark Simmons and Danny Ward to honour Richards life after he died in a car-crash in April 2023. The show won the first Victoria Wood award at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards 2023 [67] and the raised almost £20,000 for Gareth's family.[citation needed]
