His extensive TV credits include Stephs Packed Lunch (Channel 4), Live at the Apollo (BBC Two), Mock the Week (BBC Two), 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown (Channel 4), The Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV2), Roast Battle (Comedy Central) & more...
During the 2020 lockdown Baptiste performed on The Big Night In (BBC One) for Children in Need and Comic Relief. Dane also hosts his own hugely successful podcast Dane Baptiste Questions Everything, which was recently acquired by Acast.

Having left his home in the Tower of London Tom has amassed a loyal fan base of over a quarter of a million followers, the multi-viral social media sensation is delving even deeper into his ludicrous life as he tries to smarten up the not so honorable aspects of himself.Come see the now international 'master of making the seemingly unrelatable, relatable' – **** (Daily Telegraph) – for a true Fringe experience.
