Caroline C reviewed Basingstoke Round Table Comedy Charity Fundraiser Gig for Duchenne UK @ Basingstoke APOLLO Hampshire RG24 9NU which happened on 8:00pm on Fri 10th Oct 2025.

The best comedy nights make you forget everything - where you are, the time, your worries. This was one of those nights. I even forgot I was in a beige function room of a slightly dreary corporate hotel. Highlights were the compere Pat and the extraordinary President Obunjo - I was in convulsions. In a good way. Well done The Jokepit! More of the same please
