Headline Act
PHIL WALKER
Phil’s act has taken him to some weird & wonderful places, from a scout hut in Unst in the Shetland Isles to a porta-cabin on mount Alice in the Falkland Islands, basically he’ll go anywhere for a laugh! Ever since being voted City Life Comedian of the year at the famous comedy store in Manchester, Phil has been in demand as a headline act at most of the leading comedy clubs throughout the country as well as major cruise lines and hotels internationally. He made his debut at the Edinburgh festival in 2012 where he received four-star critical acclaim for his one-hour show "Is this it? Phil is proud to have entertained over 4000 troops on two tours of war-torn Afghanistan as part of the CSE shows. His other tours for the troops include, The Falkland Islands, Cyprus, Kosovo, Kuwait, Bosnia & Germany, appearing with fellow comics as well as megastars including eighties icons Tony Hadley & Bucks Fizz! Closer to home.
Phil has also recently been seen as opening act for legendary music icon Frankie Valli as part of his UK tour and support act for comedy superstar Jason Manford on his "Like me" tour. He has even ventured into his own tour "Happy Bunny" which he has taken to various festivals and theatres throught the UK in 2024/25.
Television credits to date include, Talking telephone numbers - ITV1 (three series), Live at Jongleurs - Paramount, The Big Stage - Ch 5, Today with Des & Mel - ITV1 (three series).
His great act, along with his warm personality & charm have made Phil one of the most sought-after entertainers around today.
"If you look in your local comedy club listings and ever see Phil Walker listed, get a ticket. One of the funniest acts out there." - Jason Manford.
"Phil Walker radiates an infectious, cheeky energy. He is as comfortable with stand-up as he is with audience interaction, employing Usain-quick wit, He keeps running jokes alive with perfect timing." - Three Weeks Edinburgh ****

I had a really good night . It’s the third time I have been to the Chapel to the comedy and curry night . Catherine Young was excellent as the host and I enjoyed Ant Dewson . The stand up and improv was good as usual but I didn’t enjoy Richard Pulsford’s one liners .Perhaps one liner comedy isn’t for me . My daughter and granddaughter enjoyed all of the night . We will all be going back to your next night at The Chapel in the new year . All the best to you all for Xmas and New Year .
