DESCRIPTION:Mark Nelson\, Tez Ilyas\, TBC and MC Paul Thorne all at Saddleworth’s Off The Rails Comedy Club! Scroll down for comedians details. \nActs subject to change. Fully seated. 18+ Proper sweary\, swearing. We want everyone to have a great night so please pop your phone on silent and don’t chat whilst the show is in progress. Thanks! Sorry\, but we can only reallocate or refund if the show is cancelled. \nMark Nelson’s mix of dark humour\, cutting observations and superb one-liners have seen him firmly established as one of the UK’s biggest-hitting comedy powerhouses. With a likeable manner on stage belying some of the stronger content\, Nelson often has audiences laughing at things they know they really shouldn’t be laughing at. Since winning the first ever Scottish Comedian Of The Year Award in 2006\, Mark has gone from strength to strength. A regular on Scottish TV and radio\, he has also written for Have I Got News For You\, Mock The Week\, and 8 Out Of 10 Cats and created the BBC’s biggest ever online hit\, News At 3\, which has over a quarter of a billion views! \n“Blistering material” Sunday Times “Talent that is simply obscene” List \nA regular on BBC One’s Live At The Apollo\, Tez Ilyas is also known for Tez Ilyas’ Christmas (Sky Arts)\, Man Like Mobeen (BBC Three) and has also appeared on everything from The One Show to The News Quiz and\, of course\, his very own The Tez O’Clock Show on Channel 4.
