Comedian Ashley Storrie can currently be heard hosting her self-titled BBC Radio Scotland show live every Friday from 10pm-1am. In 2019 she co-hosted BBC Scotland’s Up For It which will soon return for a second series, as well as both headlining and hosting BBC Scotland’s Comedy Underground. She is currently writing her debut sitcom amongst other projects for various broadcasters.
Ashley’s Edinburgh show Hysterical was released by NextUp Comedy in November 2019.
She is perhaps best known for her Harry Potter parody #tanyapotter, which was picked up by the national press and Lad Bible over Halloween and is currently at over 22 million views. She has since been commissioned by BBC Scotland to create online content for their Short Stuff strand, producing viral hits including If The Handmaid’s Tale was Scottish and If Game of Thrones Was Scottish.
As well as being a regular on BBC Radio Scotland’s Breaking The News, other credits include Fred MacAulay Live At The Edinburgh Stand (BBC Radio 4), The Blame Game (BBC1 NI), Fresh From The Fringe (BBC Radio 4), BBC Radio Scotland’s sitcom Jailmates and web series The Graduettes.
In 2017 Ashley retired from co-producing and co-hosting the Podcast Awards nominated “Janey Godley’s Podcast” with her mother, comedian Janey Godley, which has tens of thousands of listeners.
