Jason Forbes is a British actor, writer and comedian best known for the CITV series Horrible Science (2015), for playing PC Peasey in the The Incredible Adventures of Professor Branestawm (2014) movies on BBC One, and as a member of the award-winning sketch trio 'Daphne'.
He is co-creator, star and writer of the BBC Radio 4 series, 'Daphne Sounds Expensive'.
He was born in Bristol, England, and educated at Queen Elizabeth's Hospital in Clifton. He then went up to Jesus College at the University of Cambridge to read English, graduating in 2012.
At Cambridge University, Forbes wrote and performed in a number of comedy shows as a member of the famous Cambridge Footlights. In 2012, he co-wrote and performed in 'Perfect Strangers' - the Footlights' 50th annual revue - touring the UK and the United States. He also performed in a number of 'serious plays', from contemporary to Shakespeare; and on London's West End as part of a showcase directed by former Artistic Director of the Royal Court Theatre, Max Stafford-Clark.
Prior to becoming a professional actor, Forbes worked as a marketing executive, civil servant, computer programmer, web designer, graphic designer and teacher of languages.
In September 2014, Forbes reunited with his Cambridge Footlights contemporaries Phil Wang and George Fouracres to form the sketch group 'Daphne'.
The trio began hosting a comedy night called 'Nova Nova', every other month at the Cockpit Theatre, Marylebone, where they trialled their new material alongside guests, including British comedians Harry Hill and James Acaster.
Daphne went on to win the London Sketchfest's prize for 'Best New Act' in 2015. Their first Edinburgh Festival Fringe show, 'Daphne Do Edinburgh', was critically acclaimed and Daphne were nominated for the 2015 Foster's (formerly Perrier) Award for 'Best Newcomer'.
In February 2016, the BBC announced that Daphne would be bringing a "Goon Show-esque" comedy called 'Daphne Sounds Expensive' to BBC Radio 4, with the first episode airing on 14 July 2016. The series consists of four thirty-minute episodes.
'Daphne Sounds Expensive' was shortlisted for the 'Best Radio Sketch Show' award at the Comedy.co.uk Awards 2016. Radio 4 commissioned a second series which it would broadcast from 13 July 2017.
Forbes is a regular guest on the satirical sketch show 'Newsjack' on BBC Radio 4 Extra; and, in 2017, he appeared in the two-part BBC Radio 4 sitcom 'Life on Egg' by Daniel Maier, alongside Harry Hill, Marek Larwood and Gyles Brandreth.
