Alun Cochrane has popped up on everything from Have I Got News For You to 8 Out Of 10 Cats to Frank Skinner’s Absolute Radio show. Expanding life’s more mundane details into eye wettingly funny routine has been his mainstay for many a year. Whether it’s crisp packet opening etiquette or the buddy bench at your kids’ school, Alun has done all the thinking for you. Later years have seen him take on modern life’s more contentious topics but don’t worry, laughter is awlays first and foremost and, if you have been left with a little bit to think about, then all the better.

Bradford’s Seeta Wrightson has wandered through life wondering where exactly she fits and has had a hell of an adventure figuring it out. And it is a never-ending stream of ridiculousness that provides the fodder for her comedy. Seeta made her TV debut on the BBC New Comedy Awards back in 2022 and has recently supported Kiri Pritchard-Mclean on tour.

Many moons ago, Sunderland’s Matt Reed was offered a gig while taking part in a sketch-writing workshop. One gig led to three, and from there it snowballed, leading to a stand up career that’s taken him around the world. Matt has since been in every situation that comedy can conjure up, including broken ribs up a mountain and on stage nudity to audiences of anything from 10 to 25,000. Tour support includes John Bishop, Jim Jefferies, Sean Lock and Jason Manford.
