A small company with a serious nose for funny.

Founded by Ollie Swetenham and Edd Williams, Van Goose Productions develops fresh, distinctive comedy across long-form television, digital and podcasting, with the support of Open Mike.

Van Goose works with some of the most exciting names from the UK comedy scene, including Ali Woods, Lil Wenker, Mike Rice and Ed Night, developing projects with sharp comedic voices and ideas that feel worth chasing.

We take an agile, mildly obsessive approach to comedy in a landscape that changes every six minutes. Format agnostic, we're focused on finding the funniest idea in the room - whether that ends up on television, online, or in headphones.

Mostly, we want to make things that feel surprising, fresh and properly funny. Comedy with a strong point of view, memorable characters and enough truth underneath the jokes to stop it evaporating the second the credits roll.
