James Hamilton Is So Lonely review
In his first solo show, James Hamilton, has created an engagingly watchable character comedy narrative - albeit one which gets rather too bogged down in its convoluted storyline to produce too many laugh-out-loud moments.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 24th May 2016John Dowie at the Poetry Cafe review
This is John Dowie's first gig in 14 years, and it's a low-key affair in the basement of a Central London poetry cafe.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 20th May 2016No Such Thing as the News review
There's no such thing as a dull moment in BBC Two's new topical comedy No Such Thing As The News - a look behind the headlines presented by the 'elves' who research QI.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 20th May 2016Daniel Kitson review
The biggest surprise, though, for those used to Kitson selling out in minutes, is why the Liverpool Everyman was only half-full last night; a clash with Liverpool FC's Europa League showdown with Sevilla notwithstanding.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 19th May 2016David Baddiel - My Family: Not The Sitcom review
My Family: Not The Sitcom is, Baddiel says, the funeral speech for his mother that the Jewish faith doesn't entertain. And it also applies to his father, alive in body but departed in mind.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 18th May 2016Lenny Henry's Rogues Gallery preview
There's more than a whiff of Tales Of The Unexpected about Lenny Henry's new radio series - and as a child of the 1980s, I'm sure he wouldn't want it any other way.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 18th May 2016'David Baddiel - My Family: Not The Sitcom' review
David Baddiel's certainly got more outrageous stories to recall than most, and tells them in warmly witty style. I wish this show long life.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 18th May 2016For Little Alan review
Party like it's 1994! The boys in the Pub Band are back together - and exploding into silliness.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 17th May 2016Dave Bailey: Beige Against The Machine review
Bailey is, he readily confesses, a beta male - out of place in nightclubs but declaring himself to have a personality, unlike those who think an interesting hat or peculiar facial hair is substitute enough for that. Yet whet it comes to his material, you'd be quite hard-pressed to find much personality in that, either.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 15th May 2016Best Boy review
Male double act Best Boy have a handful of excellent 'tentpole' sketches - most notably an enjoyably anarchic finale - but they prop up some pretty flimsy material in between.
