Phil Nichol
Phil Nichol is a truly unique performer. An acclaimed actor, award winning comedian, producer, presenter, writer and musician, there is no end to his talent! WINNER - Scotsman Fringe First Award 2011 WINNER - IF.COM Eddie Award 2006 (previously The Perrier, now known as the Edinburgh Comedy Award) WINNER - Time Out Best Comedy Performer. As seen on The Graham Norton Show, Never Mind The Buzzcocks, Altitude Festival , The World Stands Up, Comedy Shuffle, and many more. 'Attacks his material with all the restraint of a Tasmanian Devil in a foghorn factory' (The Times) https://www.philnichol.com/
Rory O'Hanlon
Award-winning Irish comedian Rory O'Hanlon , Star of Perth Fringeworld Australia and previously performed @ Moscow Irish Comedy Festival alongside Dara O Briain! A regular face on Irish TV, Rory has been seen on RTE’s New Comedy Awards, Republic of Telly and alongside Des Bishop in Under the Influence. He is also a veteran of stage performing with over 12 consecutive solo shows at Edinburgh Fringe. Described by Chortle.co.uk as having 'presence, poise and timing' and by the Irish Times as having 'a joke every 30 seconds' his rapid-fire delivery regularly has audiences crying with laughter. https://www.instagram.com/roryohanloncomedy/
Don Biswas
Don has recorded a comedy special for BBC Radio 4 entitled ‘Neurotopical’ and has appeared on Radio 4’s 13 Million Club, Rosie Jones’s Boxticker as well as UKTV Digitals Rosie Jones’s Disabled Comedy Extravaganza , BBC Onlines Future Food Stars & BBC Asian Network.
'By the quality of his jokes alone, including a choice one about a corporate gig for the DWP, Biswas is the show’s star turn'. The Guardian.
“Don Biswas put more emphasis on slick one-liners, which made much of his Asperger’s and Asian background” London is Funny
Nicky G
Nicky has been going just over 2 years, coming second in the Max Turner prize, making the semi-finals of So You Think You're Funny and second in Clap Back to Reality. He has won Beat The Blackout, Ding Dong Gong Show, and the Knockout at Backyard , regularly appearing on pro bills such as Up The Creek, Top Secret, Big Belly, Backyard and Dulwich Hamlet Comedy Club.
Steve Holmes
Steve Holmes decided to get into comedy. With a moral, mental & physical stance influenced by NHS grade painkillers, Steve wants to do good in the world, but is easily distracted in his efforts. He has a world-weary view of life and a distrust of humanity borne from being an old man since childhood. He was runner-up in 2024's West End New Old Comedian of the year.
Sweary Poppins
Sweary Poppins is the unfiltered, off-duty version of the world’s most beloved nanny - and she’s here to whip you into shape. With a potty mouth and a tendency to burst into song, she’s practically (im)perfect in every way. Just make sure you sit up straight. Sweary Poppins is created and performed by Victoria Dyson.
MC Barry Matthews
Barry is married with kids and needed a reason to get out of the house and escape having to DIY jobs at home. "amiable and entertaining joke teller that had the audience laughing a lot" A Rich Comic Life Blog "He's just like a modern Val Doonican!" Mossy

I very much enjoyed James and Mossy. Abi had some reasonably funny material but took far too long with too much padding. Also, I do tire of female comics who focus almost entirely on the negative aspects of their relationships with men, which are almost exclusively negative. Abi, shorter and sharper, maybe 30 minutes.
