The act

Who's who

Clive tells it. Latrice writes it. Neither will admit the other one is right.

    the old hand

    Clive Hartley

    Clive has told the same joke for forty years and swears it gets better.

    the one with the notebook

    Latrice Campbell

    Latrice writes the lines and keeps Clive from improving them.

About

Writing table covered in graph-paper notes and tea mugs

Hello, we're Hartley & Campbell

We are Hartley and Campbell. Clive has been working pub back rooms since before Latrice was born, and Latrice answered his advert for a writer.

We have been arguing about commas ever since. We post short routines, play small venues in the north of England, and write down how it all works in a workbook.
