Exeter Comedy Club seems to be proof that we all enjoy a good laugh in difficult times. The club which is hosted at the city’s Corn Exchange continues to sell-out show after show and the Christmas specials are heading the same way.
Instead of just one performance on one night the venue is staging four comedy clubs on the run up to Christmas; on Tuesday 11th to Friday 14th December. Already the Thursday and Friday performances have completely sold out and very few tickets remain for the Wednesday evening show.
Mark Farley who is one of the club’s organisers said: “We...

Speed is merely a premise around which the show is choreographed: each half has five distinctly separate pieces - Speed of Love,...
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A day of reckoning arrived for BP on Thursday as the oil giant agreed to plead guilty to a raft of charges in the deadly Gulf of Mexico spill and pay a record $4.5 billion, including the biggest criminal fine in U.S. history. Three BP employees were also charged, two of them with manslaughter.
The settlement with the federal government came 2½ years after the fiery drilling-rig explosion that killed 11 workers and set off the nation's largest offshore oil spill.
In announcing the deal, Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer said the tragedy "resulted...
City manager Paul Tisdale believes that two good results at St James’ Park in quick succession have given the Grecians some momentum ahead of two tough away trips to Bradford and Gillingham.
Exeter beat AFC Wimbledon 2-0 last Tuesday before pegging back high-flying Fleetwood Town to earn a draw on Saturday. Journeys to Yorkshire and Kent face two in-form teams in quick succession looks a daunting prospect, but the Grecians’ boss believes that shaking off a barren run of results has given the side a good base to work from. “We made improvements, and I really liked the way we played...
