I wouldn't bother. Saw him last year and the support act before him was better than he was. If you watch Mock The Week you will find that you will know half his routine!

Lee Mack though is class!

Unfortunately I can concur - didn't see him live but if you get his last couple of DVDs then watch MTW on Dave, they're pretty much all repeated.

Still, he's well funny and I'd still go and see him - might see you there!

My wife and I are going on the 24th which is the 2nd night.
I believe you may well miss the show if you go on the 25th, check your dates

That said go anyway don't let us put you off

That's rather like complaining that when your favourite band play live they're just recycling material from their studio albums.

He was very average,after 20 mins he repeated himself,the Canadian support act was better.

Indeed he is - was headlining the Last Laugh next door in the memorial hall on the Friday night after supporting Frankie Boyle. Very funny it was too!

Yep, I agree. We nearly didn't bother going for the support but had read online that he was better than Frankie Boyle and yep they were right!

He was rubbish, just out for the shock without any real clever comedy.
