Rod Woodward

Award-winning comedian who supported Patrick McGuinness on his 110-night nationwide tour and appeared with Russell Brand at St. David’s Hall, Cardiff last summer and he won the BBC comedy competition Funny Business in February 2008.

Rod Woodward is the son of eminent Welsh sports writer, Karl Woodward. He had planned to follow his Dad and take up a career in the media but, when offered a job as a studio audience warm up man at HTV Wales, took a year out from university to pursue his childhood ambition of becoming a professional comedian.

The 32-year old from Machen, South Wales, has been in big demand on the corporate circuit for many years and recent successes have gained him much wider public awareness.

The Cardiff-born stand-up comic then performed as his alter ego Mario De Niro at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas before Joe Calzaghe's super fight with Bernard Hopkins. His song 'Delilah - the Calzaghe remix' proved a big hit with Joe's travelling army of fans.

Rod has performed for some of the largest corporate companies across Europe and is regarded as one of the best comedians in the business - Get in touch for a copy of his showreel to see Rod in action!!
