Damion Larkin - Cuddly Loser
He gave up a successful career in stockbroking to talk to strangers. Be wowed as this former Runner Up Citylife Comedian of the Year regales you with upbeat tales of incompetence, loneliness and failure tinged with a huge lust for life, chocolate and girls beyond his reach.
"One of the country top new comedians" BBC

Phil Ellis –Why I Bathe in Ajax
Amazing yarns about his astonishing family will make you laugh like never before - pure fun from this unique and effervescent comedian.
"Brings to mind Harry Hill at his most chaotic" The Guardian

‘Rapier wit’ is defined as clever, quick, intelligent humour.
Please note, Jimmy Carr doesn’t have ‘the long sword of a gentleman’ and even if you like him, ‘clever, quick and intelligent’ is a bit of a stretch.
