Our first comedy night of the season opens with the Lets Dance For Comic Relief 2011’ winner Charlie Baker

Stand-up has seen him tour the country this year to sold out audiences and has received rave reviews. His instant likeability and charming delivery style has made him a popular face on TV panels shows having appeared as team captain on A Short History Of Everything Else (C4), two series of Never Mind the Buzzcocks (BBC 2), Rob Brydon’s Christmas Special (BBC1) and The Comedy Store (Comedy Central). Charlie Baker is a versatile talent, not only a much in demand stand-up comedian, but also a accomplished and highly acclaimed jazz-singer and actor which has seen him star in The IT Crowd (Channel 4), Dr Who (BBC 1), Miranda (BBC 2). He has given the definition of entertainer a modern twist and there is no one else quite like him on the circuit.

Support comes from the loud, loveable and straight talking Marlon Davies, who’s appeared in MTV’s series Brown Eyed Boy and won FHM’s Search-for-a Stand Up prize in 09.
