A new comedy night launches at On Bar in the village this week as Kieran Lawless looks to raise some midweek chuckles with a great lineup. Pete Otway and Hayley Ellis are the two circuit legends who’ll be helping this maiden voyage for The Comedy Effect and there’s no doubt they’ll be providing big laughs.

Also launching a new night, Comedy For Hot People is going twice monthly and have the appropriately “hot” Sophie Duker to help it make a mark. They don’t come with much more heat than Duker who not only recently tore up the stage at Live at the Apollo but is also set to star in the latest series of Taskmaster. She’ll be joined by a great lineup of local talent including Jain Edwards, Dan Tiernan and James Heath, all compered by the inimitable Erika Ehler.

Paul Chowdhry: Family Friendly Comedian | Sat 9 Apr | 8pm | £25-30

After barely surviving the pandemic, and with two years of pent up killer material, Paul Chowdhry tackles the UK’s handling of the pandemic, why the rules of six only worked for white people, fame, England football fans and Tom Cruise landing his helicopter in someone’s garden. Inexplicably there are still a few tickets left to see this absolute master of the craft so grab yours while you can.
