Simon Amstell review
Casting himself as a social misfit in his new show To Be Free, Simon Amstell turns his fire, sometimes embarrassingly, on all of us.
Brian Logan, The Guardian, 13th October 2014Paul Chowdhry review
Tawdry gags about Gypsies, gay people and the French. The stand-up's PC's World seldom strays from xenophobia in a show full of poor jokes and weak puns.
Brian Logan, The Guardian, 8th October 2014Billy Connolly review
Older, frailer but Big Yin is still a maestro. The show is not the work of a man with a diminished sense of humour - it's classic Connolly, culled from a 50-year career.

Brian Logan, The Guardian, 1st October 2014Hail the Pajama Men: the Velvet Underground of comedy
Without being a household name, or even having a TV show, this double-act have influenced an entire generation of comics.
Brian Logan, The Guardian, 30th September 2014Sheeps, Beasts and the new breed of sketch show
The same sketch performed over and over, an ensemble competing to go solo, and a show rewritten live on stage ... Brian Logan meets the young guns rebooting sketch comedy.
Brian Logan, The Guardian, 29th September 2014Lee Evans review
A great comedian desperately trying to show us that he's still exactly the same old Lee. It's as if the wind has changed direction, and Evans can't get that gurn off his face.
Brian Logan, The Guardian, 28th September 2014James Acaster: Kettering confidential
Does James Acaster really come from Kettering? It seems too good to be true.
Brian Logan, The Guardian, 17th September 2014Cardinal Burns review
There are some great moments in this infectiously ridiculous show, which doesn't rely too much on the pair's hit TV series.
Brian Logan, The Guardian, 15th September 2014Michael Palin: Travelling to Work review
Hot on the heels of Monty Python at the O2, Palin's latest offering is mildly amusing but his bricolage offers no surprises.
