Jon Richardson: Old Man

A chance to see a live performance recorded at Blackpool's historic Grand Theatre, on what was the final night of the comedian's sell-out, 158-date UK and Ireland tour. Here, Jon takes to the stage to comment - and generally complain - on topics including parenthood, Brexit and haircuts. The question of why nobody but him can correctly load a dishwasher is also raised. Alas, Jon can offer no solutions to all the problems he identifies, but nevertheless provides plenty of mirth as he fails to reach a viable conclusion to his grouses.
