‘Somebody Up There Licks Me!’ Fresh from donkeys' years on his award-winning BBC Radio 4 series and the huge success of his BBC2 TV Show, Count Arthur Strong gets back to doing what he does best. This show. In ‘Somebody Up There Likes Me’ (yes, it's the Count's own spelling error on his posters) he’ll be doing all sorts of wonderful things for you to sit there staring at as you quietly suck your Maltesers and don’t get up to go to the toilet, applauding loudly at the appropriate moments. You’ll laugh, cry and the other one. Here’s a personal message from Arthur himself. ‘If you only buy...

Seann Walsh has managed to search deep inside himself to find the inner strength to get out of bed and all the way into his support act’s car, parked just outside his flat JUST FOR YOU. Before you commend him too much for this act of heroism, be aware he will sleep in the car.
In his last show ’The Lie-In King’, 2013 Foster’s Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee, Seann was living alone and trying to sort himself out.
At 28 years of age he returns with his aptly named new show ’28’ where he is now living with his girlfriend, and sheis trying to sort him out.
In a fast follow up to In (and out of) His Mind, Robin Ince continues to prod into our brains with a sharpened pencil to try and work out just how much free will anyone can have. Is anyone a freethinker?

Well, it will be something like that – basically, another night of shouting, gesticulating,...
