London is to have its own Clown Festival. And we are promised "barely a red nose in sight".
If your Facebook feed is anything like mine you’ll have spent the last few days reading about how good Dave Johns is in the new Ken Loach film I, Daniel Blake. It’s a serious role for the seasoned stand-up generating a big buzz at the Cannes Film Festival and one that could make Johns a bigger movie star than stand-up. And this is a man who has sold out the Hyena Club in Newcastle. More than once.
Jack Whitehall has announced a major arena tour for 2017.
Jack Whitehall At Large will start in Northampton on January 5 and will end in Peterborough on February 28. First London dates will be at Wembley Arena on February 11 - 13.
Tickets on sale here.
It’s great to report that the first episode of Upstart Crow was not a fluke. Writer Ben Elton repeats the trick again in the second episode. In fact if there is a problem here it isn't so much that this week’s episode is like Blackadder, it’s more a case that it is too much like last week’s episode.
Update: More than 30 new dates have been added. The tour now ends in Birmingham on May 22, 2017. All dates here.
Al Murray's Pub Landlord is touring again in 2016 and 2017. The Let's Go Backwards Together tour starts in Monmouth on September 9. He plays the Royal Albert Hall on October 11.
One of BBC3’s epic fails was axing the relationship sitcom Him & Her. Now at least BBC2 has gone some way towards making amends by commissioning writer Stefan Golaszewski to pen a new comedy, Mum. It’s in the same chatty, conversational vein but much more mature. Imagine Him & Her 30 years on with ‘Him’ dead and this could be the result.
Update May 26: Further tickets for Daniel Kitson's show below go on sale today. 70 tickets per show will be available here from noon. There should also be tickets appearing on the Edfringe.com site between noon and 2pm but the link isn't there at the moment.
