Roy Walker, Dome Corn Exchange, Brighton, Oct 25
12:26pm Wednesday 29th October 2008
Long before Chris Moyles declared him “the legend”, Roy Walker was a comedian, and the former Catchphrase host returned to his roots on Saturday night.
Post a comment »Stephen Grant, Dome Corn Exchange, Brighton, Oct 24
11:29am Tuesday 28th October 2008
Is second place really the first loser? Brighton comic Grant makes a convincing pitch that there’s more to be gained from being a perpetual runner-up than one of life’s Peter Perfects.
Phil Nichol, Pavilion Theatre, Brighton, Oct 23
11:27am Tuesday 28th October 2008
Once, while on stage during a particularly controversial song, Phil Nichol was accosted by fellow touring comedian Scott Capurro, who leapt up to accuse the Canadian of being a homophobe.
Shappi Khorsandi, Pavilion Theatre, Brighton, Oct 24
11:24am Tuesday 28th October 2008
Born in Iran but moving to Britain in the 1970s as a refugee “long before it was fashionable”, Shappi Khorsandi’s set mixed her unusual upbringing with razor-sharp observations.
Frankie Boyle, Dome Concert Hall, Brighton, Oct 23
3:44pm Monday 27th October 2008
Meta-bigotry is the comedy buzzword of the moment.
Josie Long, Pavilion Theatre, Brighton, Oct 22
3:41pm Monday 27th October 2008
To criticise Josie Long feels bad – she is lovely personified. But (whisper it) this year’s show just isn’t that funny.
Michael McIntyre, Dome Concert Hall, Brighton, Oct 22
4:11pm Monday 27th October 2008
Skipping on stage like an over-excited schoolboy, Michael McIntyre’s brand of frivolous fun seemed infectious.
Jeff Green, Dome Concert Hall, Brighton, Oct 22
4:05pm Monday 27th October 2008
Jeff Green is probably the last person in the country who is still caravanning, but it didn’t stop him doing a whole section on it in his new show Life-Ache.
Jeremy Hardy, Dome Corn Exchange, Brighton, Oct 22
4:03pm Monday 27th October 2008
Despite denouncing us as “a diverse selection of middle-class white people”, Jeremy Hardy soon had his audience eating from his constantly waving hands.
Clive James, Dome Corn Exchange, Brighton, Oct 21
2:38pm Friday 24th October 2008
“I want to prove there is something else to comedy – tedium.”
