Michael McIntyre (Presenter)
Born: February 21, 1976 in London
Best Known For: Coming from obscurity to being the biggest name in comedy seemingly overnight
Early-life: Born in 1976, in South London to a dancer and comedy writer Ray Cameron, McIntyre had a thoroughly middle-class upbringing that he describes as being entirely short of misery or material. He did his first open mic spot in 2001 having dropped out of a biology degree at Edinburgh University.
Career: Hailed as the best new stand-up to emerge in a decade, Michael has taken the comedy world by storm. He delivered electrifying sets on both We Are Not Amused (Prince Charles's 60th birthday celebrations on ITV1) and the Royal Variety Performance (BBC One), plus a stand-out performance as host on the first episode of BBC One's Live at the Apollo, leading to the Comedy Roadshow vehicle.
Quote: "Don't Man City and Man United sound a bit like gay clubs? 'Where you off to tonight? Man City? We're off to Man United. And a bit later we're off to the MEN Arena.'"
Trivia: His debut DVD release, Michael McIntyre Live & Laughing, became the fastest selling debut stand-up DVD of all time, selling more than 600,000 copies.

Judy Murray (Contributor)
Born: September 08, 1959 in Bridge of Allan, Stirlingshire
Best Known For: Being Andy Murray's mother.
Early-life: Born Judith Erskine in Bridge of Allan, Stirlingshire, on September 8, 1959 to Roy and Eileen. Her father, Roy Erskine, played football for Stirling Albion in the 1950s before becoming an optician. He was also a keen tennis player. When Judy was growing up, the tennis scene in Scotland was very small and very few women were playing competitively. Judy won 64 Scottish titles but the coaching and financial support she needed to compete professionally simply wasn't available. She qualified as a tennis coach at the age of 17 and went on to study French and business at Edinburgh University.
Career: Murray got the opportunity to be the Scottish national tennis coach in 1995. She initially identified a number of children between the ages of seven and 11 who could benefit from coaching, including her sons Jamie and Andy. Not only was she their coach, she drove them to tournaments all around the UK. Since then, she has coached a number of aspiring tennis players. In 2011, she was appointed as the captain of Great Britain's team in the Federation Cup. In 2013, she watched Andy win Wimbledon. He has won more than $30million in career prize money. Jamie has also had a successful professional tennis career, specialising in doubles. He won the Wimbledon mixed doubles title in 2007. In 2014, Judy signed up to be a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing.
Quote: "I've always been competitive. I'm like Andy, or maybe he's like me - I wear my heart on my sleeve."
Trivia: Judy was awarded an honorary Doctorate by the University of Edinburgh in 2013.

Kate Humble (Contributor)
Born: December 12, 1968 in Wimbledon
Best Known For: Fronting an array of nature shows.
Early-life: Katherine Humble was born in 1968 in Wimbledon. She admits she didn't excel at school, but was a keen swimmer. After leaving school, Kate travelled through Africa, where she was spotted by a modelling scout. She worked in the business for six months and hated every moment. At the age of 20, she landed a job with a TV production company, and worked her way up the promotions ladder. However, she decided office work wasn't for her and set off travelling again, writing travel pieces for The Daily Telegraph along the way.
Career: Humble's column eventually landed her a slot on the Holiday programme, and she hasn't looked back since. Her CV includes stints on Top Gear, Tomorrow's World, Animal Park, Rough Science and the hugely successful Springwatch and Autumnwatch series. The presenter turned her hand to acting in 1990, making her debut in The Secret Life of Ian Fleming. Kate's credits include presenting The Blue Planet Live at Wembley Arena, and fronting The Hottest Place On Earth. Over the past few years she has fronted TV projects Lambing Live, The Spice Trail, Orbit: Earth's Incredible Journey, Volcano Live, Airport Live and The Secret Life of the Sun.
Quote: "I tend to get mums pushing their little boys towards me. They ask me if I'm the Springwatch lady and then tell me things like a hedgehog they've seen."
Trivia: Away from TV, Humble loves the great outdoors and keeps bees and sheep.
