UKTV’s award winning entertainment channel Dave is making its first programme with VICE Studios, Beat The Internet with John Robins is hosted by the 2017 Edinburgh Comedy Award winner (which is lucky as his name is in the title). The new show pits members of the public against each other in a quest to predict how search engines respond to a series of questions – from images to wordplay. The results are both unpredictable and hilarious.
Comedians Elis James and John Robins are writing a book to be published later this year.
The Holy Vible will be published by Trapeze Books on October 18 inspired by the duo's chats and in-jokes about obsessions, trivia, beer and more on their cult Radio X show.
Lastminute.com Edinburgh Comedy Award joint winner John Robins has added 28 extra shows to his forthcoming UK tour, The Darkness of Robins. The tour will now take in 65 dates around the UK in total. Beginning in Leamington on 25th January 2018 and concluding at Machynlleth Comedy Festival on 4th May 2018. The London show at the Eventim Apollo on April 26 includes "Welsh support", which may or may not be his fellow Radio X presenter Elis James.
Three major London shows have been announced featuring lastminute.com Edinburgh Comedy Award winners and nominees. The shows will take place at the Duchess Theatre in London on October 16, 23 & 30.
Update 23/8/17: This is a review of an early version of John Robins' Edinburgh Fringe show that has been nominated for a lastminute.com Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Show. See nominees here.
After a tactful buffer-zone break featuring a Live From The BBC starring Doc Brown, this iPlayer series now showcases John Robins, who, at the time this material was first performed, was the partner of Sara Pascoe, who starred in the first Live From The BBC in this series. Still with me? Now read on.
Comedian and Radio X DJ John Robins is setting out on a UK tour in 2018.
The tour starts in Leamington Spa on January 25 and currently ends in Nottingham on March 22.
Full John Robins dates and tickets here.
The line-up has been announced for the Leeds Comedy Festival, which runs from Tuesday, May 30 to Sunday, June 11.
The festival started small in Leeds’ Cultural Quarter four years ago and has gone on to increase capacity year on year with huge and exciting names in the world of stand-up making their way to the city. This year over 50 comedians will be appearing in multiple city centre venues
When the pioneering Invisible Dot organisation closed down in 2016 there was a fear that the regular Union Chapel gigs promoted by ID might come to an end too. There have been lots of memorable nights at this Islington church over the years and luckily for the comedy world promoter Will Briggs has picked up the baton. Briggs is clearly a shrewd man, even if last night’s compere John Robins described him as looking like a stoner out of Point Break.
Update 16/9: A new London date has just been added. It is at the Forum, NW5 on December 19 and tickets have just gone on sale here. Please note this one will be John Robins reading from his, erm, autobiography, A Robins Amongst The Pigeons, with the aid of Elis James. For other dates see below.
