We were delighted to welcome comedian and broadcaster Simon Evans to the College for the fourth installment in our BrighTen lecture series. The BrighTen series allows pupils to hear exciting speakers throughout the academic year, all of whom are experts in their respective fields.
Simon is a well-respected comedian who is perhaps best known for his popular BBC Radio 4 programme Simon Evans Goes to Market, which brings some much-needed laughs to the world of economics.
Not only did we gain an insight into the business of comedy, Simon also showed us the comedy of business in a very funny talk that covered everything from his path into comedy and the creation of his radio show, via the economics of everything from Monster energy drinks and the French housing market.
