Chris Brooker
A gifted performer, Chris Brooker has taken his unique mix of comedy and improvisation to stages all over the world. After a decade on the UK comedy circuit Chris has forged a fine reputation for himself as a stand-up comedian and compère. His versatility has seen him play to audiences of all sizes and backgrounds, winning them over with his infectious enthusiasm, swift wit and immense likeability. Dubbed comedy's ginger Viking by a promoter, he really is a larger than life character!
'Very funny, very quick... (BBC)
'The best act of the night’ (Manchester Evening News)
Chris Betts
Known for being both a quick-witted MC and a superb addition to any bill, Chris Betts has received numerous plaudits for his sharp material and relaxed stage presence. Chris Betts ’mind is a curious place, where the philosophical meets the ridiculous. His shows are a perfect balance of incisive social satire and complete silliness. He has a style that is equal parts confident, thoughtful, ridiculous and mischievous.

Richard James
'Richard James started his comedy career in Plymouth in 2012. Since then he has travelled the length and breadth of the nation telling jokes to strangers. In 2014, he was a finalist in Foster's South Coast Comedian of the Year and has performed across the UK on pro-bills alongside the great and the good, from festivals to corporate functions, to theatres and little pubs and pretty much anywhere that'll let him say things on a microphone. In Feb 2015, he crossed the Atlantic and performed in the USA, in New York and Baltimore. Where a New Yorker said he was 'Pretty darn funny for a limey.' Richard smiled awkwardly then left.
Along with a fondness for the absurd and the awkward details of life, Richard is an unashamed nerd for history and science fiction. The material that he uses stretches from topical humour to bizarre family stories to films and history.
'Coped with an excitable crowd exceptionally well, engaging them with warming stories of hisMchildhood and own personal geekery.'
