British Comedy Award winner Nina Conti is going back on tour.
The quick-thinking queen of ventriloquism brings you her pioneering new dating show. She’ll be like Cilla Black with masks. Derailed. Not so much a Blind Date as a re-voiced one. There’s no promise that true love will be found, but a firm guarantee that big laughs will be had in the reign of this ‘voice-throwing queen’ (Evening Standard).
Rhys James' 2020 tour dates have moved to 2021.
The Mock The Week regular and star of BBC Radio 4’s ‘Rhys James Is…’ heads back out with his show Snitch. Following its premiere at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August, Rhys James will be taking the show to venues across the UK during the autumn of 2019, through the spring of 2020, starting with a run at the Soho Theatre from October 1.
Katherine Ryan's debut book is to be published later this year.
The Audacity will be published by Blink on September 30, 2021
It will tell the story of Ryan's rise from working in Hooters to being one of the biggest comedy stars in the UK, having her own hit shows on Netflix and performing sell-out tours.
Chapters will include How to Potty Train Your Baby at 10 Months, How to Cut Off Your Racist Aunties, How to Marry Your High School Boyfriend and How to Co-Parent when you're a Single Mum.
Greg Davies is making a new comedy, Safe Space, for Sky One. The Taskmaster host has written and created it and will star in it as a demotivated small-time psychotherapist heading nowhere fast until fate intervenes in the form of a new client; his rising star local MP. A dark web of revelations leads to a serious breach of client confidentially in this tale of control, power and how idiotic it makes us.
Darren Harriott is very much on the rise at the moment. He has become a television panel show regular and has appeared on Live at the Apollo - he once worked on security at the same venue. This below is a version of an interview I did with Harriott for the Evening Standard in 2018 when he was previewing his new show, Visceral. In an honest, revealing chat he talked about his childhood in the Midlands and how his life could have turned out very differently.
I've become obessed with Richard Osman's House of Games during lockdown. Particularly since Angela Barnes made House of Games history by winning all fve episodes last autumn.
Nina Conti is best known as a brilliant ventriloquist but for her new podcast she has dispensed with her dummies and formed a double act with an another real-life human being instead – Shenoah Allen, half of inventive sketch duo Pajama Men.
Comedy Sauce, a new platform supporting new and emerging comedians, has announced its first bespoke content for the channel. The platform, which is due to launch officially this Spring, has joined forces with comedian and impressionist Josh Berry for a new weekly slot at 7pm each Sunday where he will, as Rafe Hubris, host The Alternative Government Press Conference.
Comedian and co-founder of Sunday Assembly Sanderson Jones has used some of his comic initiative and sales experience to sell his two bedroom South London flat.
After the initial sale fell through at the eleventh hour Jones had to think fast so he decided to make a video to go with his Purple Bricks listing.
While the two bedroom flat in East Dulwich had a lot going for it, Jones decided that the unique selling point was the swimming pool in the communal garden.
BAFTA-winning comedian Iain Stirling (Love Island, Taskmaster) has rescheduled the Spring leg of his Failing Upwards stand-up tour across Autumn 2021 and Spring 2022 as a result of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. The 71-date tour is now set to begin on the 14th September 2021 with three dates in Bristol and to culminate on the 24th April 2022 at Dublin’s Vicar Street.
