James Veitch /ˈviːtʃ/ is a British comedian. He is the star of the YouTube television show Scamalot, which focuses on Veitch's humorous interactions with scam emails.
The Fundamental Interconnectedness of Everyone with an Internet Connection
Veitch's first solo comedy show debuted at Brighton Fringe in May 2014[1] as part of the arts industry showcase WINDOW [2] and followed in August with a successful run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe[3]. Veitch had spent the past year responding to as many scam emails as he could; the show concerned scam emails and, more broadly, the nature of the Internet. "The Internet is, like much of life, full to the brim with uncertainties. On the one hand it's allowed a doctor in Dubai to perform a life-saving operation on a patient in Peking. On the other hand it's also allowed me to enroll a gerbil at Eton. I'm not sure where I stand is basically what I'm saying."[4]
The solo's sell-out run[5] was described by the Sunday Herald as "Topically brilliant comedy. Tears-down-the-face funny,"[6] and by The Scotsman as containing "Near-constant belly laughs".[7]
TED talks
James Veitch recorded multiple TED talks around December 2015. [8]
