Seann Walsh

Described as 'the best observational comedian of his generation' (The Guardian), this Edinburgh Award nominee's last UK tour show After This One, I'm Going Home ended with standing ovations around the country. Seann has starred in Netflix's Flinch, Live At The Apollo, Tonight at The London Palladium, Celebrity Juice, Play To The Whistle, Virtually Famous, 8 Out of 10 Cats, Chatty Man, Stand Up Central and is a regular guest on The Jonathan Ross Show.??Not just one of the countries funniest stand-up comedians, Seann can be seen acting in Jack Dee's ITV sitcom Bad Move where he plays audience favourite, Grizzo.


Mike Gunn

Mike Gunn's history is as interesting and entertaining as his comedy. He’s been a successful stand-up comedian for over 15 years, but his road to success was a rocky one involving a misspent youth, a heroin addiction spanning 15 years and a stint in a psychiatric unit. Thankfully his sordid past is long behind him; but it cultivated a deeply cynical outlook and a perverse desire led him into the world of stand-up. A self-confessed pessimist, he describes himself as "not a natural choice for a career in laughter". The evidence however, might suggest otherwise.

For well over a decade Mike has been firmly established as one of the most sought-after and accomplished comedians working on the UK and international circuit. An original talent, distinguished by his trademark laconic and lugubrious dark humour, killer punch lines and masterful delivery. Mike headlines at all the major clubs in the UK and has performed all across the globe, in the Middle and Far East, and as far afield as New Zealand and Australia; completing a five week sell out season at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. He has also entertained the troops in the Falkland Islands.


Jason Patterson

Winner of the Laftas Rising Star Award, Jason Patterson is a versatile and engaging comedian.
An audience favourite Jason has performed at comedy clubs across the UK and his strong performances have seen him booked on the International circuit performing across North America Europe and the Middle East. He’s also had appearances on BBC3 and MTV

“Brilliant stage presence backed by a perfectly measured delivery” – Chortle


Windsor

Widely regarded as one of the finest comperes around, Windsor has been a mainstay of the live comedy circuit since 1997. He has combined years of street performance skills with a natural charm and warmth, along with an enviable ability to make people relax.

By transferring his street experience of audience control and off- the- cuff humour, Windsor became a highly skilled and supremely professional compere almost overnight. With an extraordinary ability to warm up a show and keep it running at a high-quality level. In addition to his improvisational skills top quality material makes him a top-notch act. A well-known face at Covent Garden and winner of five street performance awards, including Best Comedy Act, Windsor has developed into a hilarious compere and comedian, with a well-crafted and instinctive ability to involve and warm up any audience.

In a career that has spanned three decades he has compered shows that have included: Michael McIntyre, Jimmy Carr, Frank Skinner, Micky Flannagan, Greg Davies and Sarah Milligan. His career has taken him to the following countries: Australia, New Zealand, Turkey, Greece, Spain, Holland, Switzerland, Dubai, Poland, Germany, Norway, Iceland, Egypt and Wales!

Tonight’s show features the magnificent Ivo Graham, Fiona Allen, a special guest & Dave Ward


Ivo Graham

Despite extensive grooming for more serious careers at Eton and Oxford, Ivo (now 33) has spent his entire adult life on the stand-up circuit, winning So You Think You’re Funny? aged 18 in 2009 and since establishing himself as, if not the UK’s poshest, then certainly its most apologetically posh comedian. With a bumbling charm to snare audiences of all ages, he’s detailed the various developments in his relationships/neuroses over eight sell-out solo shows, including 2019’s The Game of Life, which received nominations for Best Show and Best Joke at that year’s Edinburgh Fringe. He’s appeared on TV comedies including Have I Got News for You, QI, The Last Leg, Mock the Week, and Live at the Apollo, quizzed with varying degrees of success on Pointless, House of Games, Mastermind, and University Challenge, and toured the country with Fern Brady and Darren Harriott for Dave’s six-part travelogue British as Folk in 2021. He’s earned his parents’ respect with appearances on Radio 4’s The Now Show, The News Quiz, Just a Minute, and the drama Unite, and his forthcoming panel show Ivo Graham’s Obsessions, and shoehorned Swindon Town references into many an episode of 5 Live’s Fighting Talk and BT Sport’s The Football’s On. In 2023 Ivo competed, energetically if not not successfully, on the fifteenth series of Channel 4’s Taskmaster, and making bold and arguably greedy intrusions into the world of theatre and clubnight producing.

Fiona Allen

Twice Emmy winning actor and comedian Fiona Allen has been a mainstay of our TV screens over the past two decades. She has starred in various sketch shows, most famously the iconic “Smack the Pony“. Fiona has also appeared in television dramas such as “Dalziel and Pascoe“, “Shameless“, “Coronation Street” and “Happiness” alongside Paul Whitehouse. On film, Fiona played Sandra in the film version of the famous Viz comic strip “Fat Slags“, and Smirgut the Fierce in “Gladiatress“. Most recently she has been in that little-known soap “Eastenders“…

Fiona won a whole new generation of fans in the second series of the hit E4 teenage drama “Skins“, playing Maxxie’s mum, Jackie Oliver (her on-screen hubby was Bill Bailey). She has also played the role of Georgia Stevenson in the BBC drama “Waterloo Road“, while often appearing as herself on comedy shows like “Mock the Week” and “8 Out Of 10 Cats“.


Special guest

We will be joined by a special guest with numerous accolades and TV credits. More details will be announced soon.


Dave Ward

David Ward is in demand as both an MC and headliner in stand up comedy clubs across the UK and Europe. He has supported a number of major TV stand up comedians on tour, including Lee Hurst and Tom Stade.

He is also in demand for his TV warm up work and has performed for the troops in Kuwait and the UAE. His spontaneity made him the choice host for the heats of the BBC’s New Comedy Awards and Channel 5’s So You Think You’re Funny?.
