Nabil competed in the 2020 series of Britain’s Got Talent, enjoying a triumphant run to the competition’s final, drawing praise from the show’s judges for his hilarious and uncompromising brand of stand-up comedy.
Before appearing on BGT, Nabil had already carved out a unique, exciting and varied career in UK and international comedy. Within a year of starting to perform, he had already written, starred in and directed his own sketch show on Channel U and was also joint winner of the Which Religion Is Funniest? competition, judged by UK comedy legends Omid Djalili and David Baddiel. Triumphing over a number of more experienced comedians in the final of the latter, Nabil won the opportunity to perform at London’s prestigious Hammersmith Apollo, becoming the youngest ever black stand-up to do so.
Nabil has been solidly building up his broadcast career with appearances on Live At The Apollo, ITV2’s The Stand Up Sketch Show and BBC’s Celebrity MasterChef. Nabil also co-hosts his own podcast, I Am Not Your Bilal, which is available to stream on Spotify.
