Paul Savage is a Midlands comic who has gigged all over the UK from the Highlands of Scotland to the very tip of Cornwall, and all over the world from Sweden to South Australia. He's recently returned from down under in fact, where he's been touring his latest show, which he describes as "Just loads of true stories of me being a dickhead."

He once impressed a girl at a gig so much she called off her engagement and stalked him for a bit, sending him naughty photos. She later moved back to Poland.

"Genuinely brilliant. Writes a good joke, draws a good cartoon: an all round hoot" – The Guardian

"A man determined to find comedy in the unlikeliest of places" – Broadway Baby

Danny Sutcliffe is your compère for the evening. Seen most recently on the big screen in the film 'Mr Doom: Behind The 8-Ball' – now available on all good streaming services – he's also a thoroughly lovely fella who lists standing on sheds, and flipping tables among his many anti-social hobbies.
