One of the best-loved comedians in the world, Jimmy Carr announces his brand-new tour Terribly Funny.

Terribly Funny contains jokes about all kinds of terrible things. Terrible things that might have affected you or people you know and love. But they’re just jokes – they are not the terrible things.

Jokes are little lies. Nothing more than wonderful, funny, joyful tricks, constructed from language. Jimmy will be telling jokes to an adult paying audience who’ve got a good idea what’s in store.

And there’s no point to the show, save for to make the audience laugh.
Having political correctness at a comedy show is like having health and safety at a rodeo.

Now you’ve been warned, enjoy the laughs.

Outside of television, Katherine has sold out venues across the UK, US and Canada with her stunning live shows.

Now Katherine makes a hugely welcome return to the stage with her brand-new live show Missus.

Having previously denounced partnership, Katherine has since married her first love, accidentally. A lot has changed for everyone and we can look forward to hearing her hilarious new perspectives on life, love, and what it means to be… Missus.

Steve Harley celebrates his 47th year in music in 2020 and continues to play concerts around the world. He says that playing live is more than a job, it’s almost his life’s blood. Considered one of the most charismatic live performers at work today, the original Cockney Rebel tours with a full 6-piece rock band and also fronts the Steve Harley Acoustic Band. Music is very much still his first love.
‘We see the world and play to great audiences – how good is that! I see great cities and their galleries and museums in our down-time, beautiful landscapes from the Arctic Circle to the Mediterranean coast, all in my life as a touring musician. It’s still the greatest job on earth!’ Harley said recently.
The live shows include the big hit singles like Judy Teen, Mr Soft, Love’s a Prima Donna, the legendary Sebastian, as well as the evergreen Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me) – a song noted by PRS as one of the most-played songs in history on British Radio. Steve was awarded a Gold Badge of Merit by the British Academy of Songwriters, and a Lifetime Achievement Award for Acoustic Music by the British Festival of Acoustic Music in 2018.

JASON FOXex-Special Forces soldier, Star of TV’s SAS: Who Dares Wins, Inside The Real Narcos and author of Number One Bestseller“Battle Scars”will bring to the stage and on tour for the first time, the remarkable story of his daring exploits in a distinguished career as an elite operator in the UK Special Forces (SBS) and beyond.
From gunfights, hostage rescues, daring escapes and heroic endeavours that defined Jason Fox’s service, to a very different battle that awaited him at home, “Life At The Limit” is a breathtaking story of Special Forces soldiering; a chronicle of operational bravery, adventure and courage on and off the battlefield.  
A vivid, searing account of his life, that tells some incredible moments of strength and courage. Jason’s appetite for adventure and extremes has no limit and has led him to take on some amazing challenges both in the Military (Royal Marines, SBS) and in his TV roles – SAS Who Dares Wins, Inside The Real Narcos and The Final Mission: Foxy’s War. He is also a world record-breaking rower and adventurer who has embarked on expeditions across Alaska, the North Pole and most recently the River Yukon.
His first tour will touch on the incredible moments he has encountered through his career and touch on the struggles he encountered when he returned home to the effects and struggles of PTSD.
Civilian life has not slowed or quelled the fire burning deep within Jason, and luckily for the audience he will share behind the scenes anecdotes, some hilarious, others brutal; life on set of C4’s SAS Who Dares Wins; and what it’s really like when you come face to face with notorious killers, drug cartels, Mexican warlords and hitmen in Inside The Real Narcos. “Life At the Limit” is a very honest account of a long and difficult journey, but it promises to be inspiring, entertaining, funny and moving in equal measure.

Glenn Tilbrook has more than earned his place at pop’s top table as one of our most cherished singers, guitarists and songwriters, not to mention an in-demand and endlessly endearing live performer. But more than 40 years after he first answered an ad placed by Chris Difford looking for like-minded sorts to form the band that became the much-loved evergreen Squeeze, an ending is nowhere in sight.

Such is the continuing work ethic of a fellow who’s never been far from the action since Squeeze made their recording bow with the Packet Of Three EP in 1977. Those humble three tracks led to such enduring pop classics as Take Me I’m Yours, Cool For Cats, Up The Junction, Another Nail In My Heart, Tempted, Labelled With Love, Black Coffee In Bed, Hourglass (this could go on for a while…), not to mention landmark albums like Argybargy, East Side Story and Some Fantastic Place.

Anyone who has witnessed Glenn on the live stage can attest to the properness of his doings, as it were. Armed with ready wit, raucous vibes and a shed load of grin-inducing great songs, there are few musicians able to connect with their audience on such an immediate and warm level. The ever burgeoning festival circuit is frequently enriched by Tilbrook the troubadour, whether he be leafing through the plentiful back catalogue of Squeeze or dashing off impromptu audience requests ranging from Jimi Hendrix to Tony Orlando & Dawn, and all points in-between.
