Richard Herring is great. He has a podcast of his interviews with various stand ups at Leicester Square …

Ah I forgot this one - Luisa Omielan
I was crying with laughter. But some of it was about mental health and was throught provoking.
Sort of went a bit viral last year with this sketch
Love RHLSTP , looking forward to his AIOTM which has got Kickstarter money behind it
I forgot Henning Wehn - hilarious!
Finally saw Richard Herring at the other Dave Gorman show. Will try and remember the other comedians.
So tomorrow night off to see Stewart Lee!

Dave Gorman thought the following were worth a view:
Sofie Hagen - London-based Danish comedian and podcaster. I am sure she made me chuckle a bit.
Jarlath Regan - Irish stand-up comedian and podcaster. Think we proper laughed at him.
Pete Firman - mixes comedy and magic. Sounds a bit cheesey but was really good at both.
Have got free tickets to see a bbc radio 4 recording of Rob Newman tonight. They oversubscribed so fingers crossed we get in. Saw him do the try outs of the show so we will get to see the finished product.
So after seeing Rob Newman we went to see David Baddiel My Family: Not the Sitcom at the Playhouse Theatre near Embankment tube station. As the title suggests it’s about his family, in particular is mum and dad. Mostly it’s about his mum. It’s tears of laughter funny, but also in parts tears of sadness. There are times when you can see he could end up crying. It’s on for a furthe 6 weeks and I highly recommend it if you are up in London.
I bought the tickets via a deal on Time Out for the matinee today. Ended up downstairs in the stalls for half the price.
Top Secret off Covent Garden is a great shout. Their new material nights on Wednesdays are a real bargain at £1 entry + whatever you think the show is worth.
The Rob Newman show on R4 (which I think is what @intiniki was referring to)
Ep1 only available for another 11 days
Stewart Lee tomorrow…

Shall I tell you his improvisations?
I’m going too 
As well as enjoying Stewart Lee an awful lot this evening, just as entertaining was finally seeing the type of people in the audience he has been talking about for years, as the 2 people sat next to me (who were obviously there with very different expectations) didn’t offer as much as a chuckle, sitting stony faced and perplexed until they finally left about 15 mins into the second half. Made me feel all warm and smuggly
Sorry, I thought it was you sat next to me!
He just didn’t tell proper jokes, not like I enjoy on Mrs Brown’s Boys.
I was sat in the front row in the orchestra pit, it was a bit bizarre.
Shall we tell @pap what he had to say about Brexit voters?..
Or shall I just leave it that Mr Lee suggests that the Labour Party is led by Catweazle and his gang of furious tramps?

Going to see Micky Flanagan on Sunday in Manchester! Really looking forward to it!
After a day of Latin America politics I headed to The Union Chapel in Islington to sit on hard pews for some comedy. We remembered to take some cushions this time so my back isn’t as bad as it could have been today.
The line up was Joe Wilkinson, Lolly Adefope with headliner Rob Delaney and compère Ed Gamble. There was a choir too as it’s christmas. There was a bonus Joe Lycett who opened the night.
Joe Lycett was very funny. We also enjoyed Lolly and Ed Gamble was very amusing. I’d booked it for Rob Delaney and I found him hilarious in parts but other half wasn’t so sure. We felt that Joe works better as a character rather than standup.
