Liam and Rob originally met at Salford University and started performing comedy around the Manchester circuit. After graduating they were separated by Liam moving to Spain and were not to be reunited until some years later. Thankfully they were both still funny.
Liam was until recently one half of fabulous comedy duo, Blue Pepper described by the Independent on Sunday as ..fondly old school.. and ..full of energy...
Rob has been acting his way around the UK for quite some time and now makes his home in London.
Together for your pleasure, they are The Scarlet Pimps.

The Scarlet Pimps's Interests
General
Making people laugh - we would have thought that was obvious!
Music
One mans music is a another mans noise!
Heroes
You, your friends and your family. Oh and those weird people who sit next to you on the tube.
About me: The Scarlet Pimps are a slick, fast comedy duo...but more than that they are funny. Variety is the spice of life and certainly the spice of comedy - these boys are very spicey...though not in a Spice Girls well...though Liam does look good in a little black dress...nevermind.
With elements of the surreal, observational humour, wordplay, dance, song, movement, tea, coffee, PYTHON, RONNIES, THATCHER (maybe not!), MUSIC HALL, CABARET, PANTO, NEWSNIGHT.. no subject is left untouched and no style is left unused.
Sometimes it takes someone from the outside to look in on a world and point out its true hilarity and The Scarlet Pimps go out of their way to do this.
