Ustreme

Founded by comedian Jim Davidson OBE, Ustreme is a streaming platform with one goal: “To make people laugh like they used to”.

The channel launched during the Covid pandemic, when Jim, known as one of the UK’s biggest light entertainment stars, was unable to perform his stand-up shows.

He began recording short video snippets which rapidly became popular – giving him the idea of launching a new platform to directly reach comedy fans in their homes.

Now with backing from Ridown, Ustreme has gone from strength to strength and is available through its own smart TV app and major platforms such as Amazon Fire TV and Roku.

As well as Jim himself, the platform includes shows from comedy legends such as Jethro, Norman Wisdom, Bobby Davro and Roy Chubby Brown, with many more to be added.
