Rob Gilroy: Making a stand #10

Everyone loves new things, it's like being reborn.

Rob Gilroy: Making a stand #9

This week I'm in the very fortunate position of being able to write about the latest instalment of my Jolly Mixtures sketch night - because if you couldn't make it down, the next best thing surely must be reading a blow-by-blow description of it online, in the cold and sober light of day. Am I right guys? Guys?

Rob Gilroy: Making a stand #8

Sketch writing. It seems only fair that I discuss it this week, given the sad passing of the wonderful Eddie Braben - the man behind so many incredible Morecambe and Wise sketches.

Rob Gilroy: Making a stand #7

Before I tell you what I want to tell you, I must stress: I am not prone to bitchyness. It's not my forte.

Rob Gilroy: Making a stand #5

Rob Gilroy: Making a stand #4

Last week I did a sketch show. Not on my own, that would be utterly ridiculous. Can you imagine me having to entertain a room full of people for over two hours? You can? You don't happen to be an agent do you?

Rob Gilroy: Making a stand #3

What do you do for a living? You. Yes, you. What do you do for a living? Oh, that's nice. How long have you been doing that? Hmm, that's interesting. What, me? What do I do? Well, I'm a comedian (subtext: unemployed) but then you'd know that if you could be arsed to read my previous posts. I don't know why I bother, honestly.

Rob Gilroy: Making A Stand #2

Despite bluntly stating how unqualified I was for this position last week; I'm back. If you ask me they're fools for doing it but don't let on.

Rob Gilroy: Making a stand #1

Here's a new, weekly column from aspiring character comedian Rob Gilroy (stage name Jerry Bucham). This week, Rob talks about why he performs stand-up as a busker from Bristol...
