Early life and education[edit]

Long was born in Sidcup and spent her early life in Orpington, London,^[2] where she attended Newstead Wood School for Girls. She began performing stand-up comedy at 14, winning the BBC New Comedy Awards at the age of 17. Long attended Michael Knighton's comedy course in Beckenham, London. At 18 she gave up stand-up whilst attending Lady Margaret Hall, University of Oxford, ran experimental comedy clubs, and graduated with a degree in English.^[3]

Career[edit]

After graduating Long returned to live stand-up, supporting Stewart Lee on his spring 2005 tour.^[4] In March that year, Long was named Best Newcomer at the 2005 Chortle Awards.^[5]

She makes a return appearance in series six as the college guidance counsellor in episode one.

She has also been involved in BBC Switch, on a weekly mini-feature called Josie Long's Confuse the Teacher Feature, where a word is read out by Long for young people listening to the show to include in their homework, which was formed after her suggestion of the idea during an interview on the show with Annie Mac.

She also appeared regularly in Robin Ince's podcastShow & Tell, now called Robin and Josie's Utter Shambles, co-hosted the Resonance FM show I, DJ with Danielle Ward and Isy Suttie, and guested on Answer Me This! podcast.

On 9 October 2008 she appeared on Never Mind the Buzzcocks in the second programme of the 22nd series.

On 21 and 23 August 2009 Long performed at the Green Man Festival. On 15 November 2009, Long was the guest on the Dave Gorman radio show on Absolute Radio and the subsequent podcast of the show, before making her second appearance with Iain Lee, this time on Iain Lee's 2 Hour Long Late Night Radio Show, on the same station eight days later. She occasionally wrote for Alan Moore's underground magazine Dodgem Logic.

On 15 January 2010 she was a contestant on Channel 4's panel show 8 Out of 10 Cats. On 18 March 2010 she appeared on the BBC Two comedy quiz TV programme show The Bubble, during which she notably wore a garment displaying Nye Bevan-related witticisms. She wrote and performed three short plays as part of BBC Radio 4's Afternoon Play series, including one about apostrophes.

Since 2010, Long has been involved with the anti–tax-avoidance activist group UK Uncut, and in 2011 co-founded The Arts Emergency Service,^[11] a charity helping young people in education. She has on occasion promoted these groups through her stand-up and has also performed stand-up at protests and occupations, including the 2011 Hetherington House Occupation.

Long presented a Saturday morning radio show with Andrew Collins on BBC 6 Music^[12] and runs a monthly comedy club at The Black Heart in Camden Town, recordings of which are used for her new podcast The Lost Treasures of the Black Heart.^[13] Since 2013 she has been the presenter on BBC Radio 4's Short Cuts,^[14] which was nominated for Best Speech Programme at the Radio Academy Awards in 2014.^[15]

In 2012, Long toured the UK with Grace Petrie, Tom Parry and the activism group UK Uncut to protest against public-sector government funding cuts.^[16] Long and director Doug King also produced two short comedy films in Glasgow called Let's Go Swimming and Romance and Adventure, which were nominated for a BAFTA Scotland New Talent Award. The pair toured independent cinemas across the UK during Autumn 2013.^[17]

Long has been a Doctor Who fan since she was a child^[18] and she is interviewed for the special features of several classic series DVD releases, including Nightmare of Eden and Dragonfire.

In 2018, Long and Jonny Donahoe performed a comedy show together based around parenting and expecting the birth of their daughter.^[19] They subsequently turned the show into a podcast, Josie & Jonny Are Having a Baby (With You!).^[20] Drawing on this, Long's show at the 2019 Edinburgh Fringe, Tender, discussed the subject of childbirth and optimism about the future. A review in Chortle noted that '[the] whole act is well refined with funny voice breaks, emotional act-outs, exaggerations and unexpected callbacks. .... So much is covered in this hour, without it becoming wordy, overlong or a chore. And certainly without losing the funny, which it has in abundance.'^[21][22]

Also in 2019 Long and Liam Williams wrote and started in Perimeter, a dystopian play about a city divided into rich and poor areas by a giant fence. The play was broadcast as part of Radio 4's Dangerous Visions series.^[23] The same year, Long also presented a new podcast for English Heritage, Speaking with Shadows; the podcast won in the 'Contribution to Heritage' category at the UK Heritage Awards.^[24][25] In 2020, Long took her show Tender on tour around the UK.^[26]
