About Ben Ashenden
Ben is a comedy genius. He and his partner-in-the-crime-of-making-people-laugh, Ace Owen, write and perform series of The Pin for BBC Radio 4, as well as other platforms, and has kept giggling through lockdown(s) with their funny Zoom skits. He has that throwaway, understated air so beloved of current comedy.
