Others taking part include Simon Amstell, Mo Gilligan,  Mawaan Rizwan, Rosie Jones, Ed Byrne and internet star Munya Chawawa making the transition to the live stage.

Today’s announcement is rounded off by  Judi Love, Darren Harriott, David Morgan,  Flo & Joan, Glenn Moore, Helen Bauer, Josie Long, Kerry Godliman, Lauren Pattison, Lou Sanders, Luisa Omielan, Reginald D Hunter, Sophie Duker and Tiff Stevenson.

The festival, which takes place in Henham Park, Suffolk, from July 22 to 25 has also announced that the music headliners will be Wolf Alice, The Chemical Brothers, Bastille and Bombay Bicycle Club.
