UKTV channel Dave has announced that it is making a brand new comedy series, entitled Undercover, starring Daniel Rigby.
Following another sell-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, madcap nonsense-maker Tony Law is back on the road, bringing his brand new stand-up comedy art show: Enter the Tone Zone to venues across the UK from Falmouth to Glasgow and many more in between. The tour starts at the Chapter Arts Centre in Cardiff on September 30.
Following a successful tour earlier this year, Sean Hughes has added further UK performances for his latest show, Penguins. He kicks off this leg of the tour on September 19 at the Didcot Cornerstone.
This autobiographical show goes back to Hughes' childhood in Ireland and explores the utter awkwardness of teenage life, weaving in his family, his school days, the business of friendship and tying it all in to the present. You'll have to see the show for yourself to find out what Penguins have got to do with it.
Following his Edinburgh 2014 run, Andrew Lawrence heads back on the road with a UK tour of Reasons To Kill Yourself, starting in Kendal on September 24.

And, of course, Coogan and Brydon put their own twist on buddy banter in The Trip.
Until the cameras roll it won't be known exactly what crisis will be averted or indeed where Ian's desk will be.
In music in recent years there has been the phenomenon of Guilty Pleasures. Songs that deep down in your heart you know that you should hate, but somehow you can’t get the tune out of your head. Romesh Ranganathan has a prime example of this in his current show when he talks about how he thinks the lyrics of Blurred Lines are rapey, but the rhythm just makes you want to jiggle your body.
