Tony Burgess

 

You may recognise Tony from his role in the cult BBC3 comedy Ideal where he plays DJ Troy, or maybe you’ve caught him doing stand up where he plays most established venues throughout the country.

 Gregg Cook

 

Greg Cook’s deadpan style and mastery of the spoken word led John Plowman, head of BBC Comedy to describe him as ‘Les Dawson for the 21st century’.

 

A great favourite at The Comedy Club at the Swinley.

?

 Mystery guest star.

 

We are not allowed to enter details on the web regarding tonight's headliner other than to say he is a superb one-liner comic and prolific joke writer who writes many of the jokes used on TV panel shows like '8 Out of 10 Cats'

 You will not be disappointed!

 Gavin Webster

 

Gavin Webster's style of comedy is loud, sharp and controversial.

 

A definite Geordie, Gavin has now established himself as one of the most exciting talents to emerge on the national comedy circuit in recent years.

 Andy White

 

Andy is a Brummie who escaped from a call centre to become a stand up comic. He combines silly voices and a mad afro to devestating comic effect.

 

Andy's humour embraces silly voices, funny faces, observational humour, topical humour and his mixed race background. He can do material that's clever, cheeky, sick or just silly.

 Ian Stone

 

Ranked amongst the top ten stand-ups in Britain by the Independent, Ian is one of the most talented acts in the country.

 

Edgy and provocative with an easy going manner and a self depreciating style Ian is at great ease bantering with an audience.

 Ben Schofield

 

Ben has performed to audiences and received critical acclaim in venues across the north of England. A dyed-in-the-wool rocker, he has imbued his performances with his rock and roll spirit, producing a dynamic, colourful (and really quite loud) act that is guaranteed to entertain.

 

Certainly did not let us down last time he was here.
