Exeter Comedy Club returns with the first show of the autumn programme, still offering real value for money and top quality comedy at one of the best comedy clubs in the country.
Four top comedians all from the national circuit - everyone gets a reserved table.
This remarkable pairing played an important part in the tremendous shake up given to British folk music in the middle to late 60's.
Their experienced approach to their art lacks none of the fervour of their early days, and brings a maturity born of many years living with the music that is an integral part of their beings.
All the old skills are demonstrated with a new collection of traditional songs and instrumentals.
