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 itâs about his family, in particular is mum and dad. Mostly itâs about his mum. Itâs tears of laughter funny, but also in parts tears of sadness. There are times when you can see he could end up crying. Itâs 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 ÂŁ1 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 tomorrowâŚ
Shall I tell you his improvisations?
Iâm 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) didnât 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 didnât tell proper jokes, not like I enjoy on Mrs Brownâs 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?
Nothing that hasnât been said on here about a thousand times 
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 isnât 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 itâs 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. Iâd booked it for Rob Delaney and I found him hilarious in parts but other half wasnât so sure. We felt that Joe works better as a character rather than standup.
Last night I headed to Shepherds Bush Empire for Luisa Omielan. When the show was booked it was for her show Am I Right Ladies but her mother passed away earlier this year. So the show was about that, cancer, NHS failings, palliative care and cannabis oil. Doesnât sound a barrel of laughs and some parts were really hard for her and the audience. She said at the beginning that people could leave if they needed. But at other parts she had us laughing. She had a standing ovation.
Comedy can be a great way of dealing with some horrific stuff. There are so many stand upâs and comedy actors whoâve suffered.
Weâve all fucking suffered. Itâs what it is to be human. Some of us laugh about it and some cry and some do both as some do neither.
Iâm like a philosopher. A whiskey philosopher.
that was funnier before i posted it.iâve been drinking.
So at the Camden Head in Camden (wouldnât be silly enough to think it was the one in Angel would I?).
Anyway here to see Sara Pascoe do some prep for her tour. Sheâs actually on the door checking us off on the list.
edit - she was very funny. There was also Brett Goldstien too. Also hilarious. Ended up sat next to a woman who also works where my partner does. London is small.
Itâs not a gig, so much as a series of recorded gigs, but the Trilogy by Alice Fraser is some of the best stand-up Iâve heard for ages:
Listeners to the Bugle will know her for astute silliness, but thereâs so much depth to her full shows.
