Julian Clary on his latest comedy capers

It's my 30th anniversary next year. It's changed beyond all recognition. It used to be an eclectic selection of people in small rooms above pubs in the 1980s. Our comedy was a reaction against the right-wing men in bow ties who were being offered as light entertainment in those days.

Julian Clary says it's getting harder to shock audience

Julian Clary has spent his career making the outrageous seem ordinary. Now the veteran performer, who left audiences stunned with his vulgarity and over-the-top camp act when he burst onto British television in the 1980s, said it is becoming harder and harder to shock.

Comedy review: Julian Clary

Celebrating 30 years in comedy, Julian Clary has settled into a cosy, anecdotal manner that's as laden with filth and innuendo as ever, but never close to shocking.

Comics with spectacular ha-ha homes

There are turrets and timbers, thatched roofs, private moorings and even an island. One home even has a secret garage, another boasts a 400-year-old walled garden. Yes, the titans of the comedy world have done rather nicely out of making people laugh.

Julian Clary review

It's not that Julian Clary isn't a likeable chap. In fact, I requested this gig following sense of nostalgic endearment of seeing him back upon our screens in 'Nature Nuts'. Sadly this was to turn out to be one of my poorer choices during the Glasgow Comedy Festival.

Now 56, Clary says he's grown up a lot ahead of forthcoming stand-up tour The Joy of Mincing, which kicks off in Glasgow.
