Graeme Rayner: Beardonomics

It seems like every bloke has a beard these days. But can you ever really trust a man with one? And what does a beard actually tell us about the person underneath? In Beardonomics, bearded comedian Graeme Rayner embarks on an hour-long investigation into the world's most notable - and notorious - bearded men. From the best beards in history to the very worst, Graeme asks the big questions, shares the questionable findings and uncovers more about beards than you ever thought possible. Or wanted to know. Or needed to know. After all, he has a beard himself. So can he be trusted? Graeme Rayner was a finalist in the 2026 RAM Comedy Festival Comedian of the Year Competition, the 2025 Halifax Comedy Festival Comedian of the Year Competition and the 2023 Comedy Hotspot Search for a Star. He was also a semifinalist in the 2023 British Comedian of the Year competition.
