Jim Smith: Back To The Teuchter

Rising comedy star Jim Smith has announced a new herd of autumn dates for his sell out Back to the Teuchter tour as the funny farmer brings tales of rural life to audiences across Scotland.

It's Countryfile meets The Only Way Is Essex as Jim hits the stage with quirky characters, distinctive regional slang and perfectly pitched impressions to give city slickers an understanding of what the outside world looks like to those that 'bide up the glen'. Hot topics include internet dating for farmers, village nightlife and how to pimp your Land Rover.

After catching the comedy bug writing sketches for the Young Farmers panto and making his stage debut five years ago, Jim Smith is now one of Scotland's most exciting up and coming performers. Still a working farmer in Perthshire, Jim's unique insight into rural living coupled with his sharp observational humour creates a show that's suitable for country bumpkins and dead trendy townie folk alike.

The autumn tour extension comes hot on the heels of his BBC mockumentary mini series The Farm and will see him perform in Inverness, Aberdeen, Campbeltown, Skye, Kelso, Oban, Kilmarnock, Dumfries, Falkirk and Perth.

With two sell out Fringe runs under his belt (and when he's not taking care of sheep and cows) Jim is in demand as a performer all over Scotland. TV and radio credits include BBC Radio Scotland's Breaking The News, BBC Scotland's Scot Squad and BBC Short Stuff's The Farm Diaries.
