31st July - Summer Holidays

The LLC regulars in The Winston Churchill Story, Flash, Sean Turner, Jamie Rothwell, Steff Peddie, also appearing were Chris Ramsey and Paul Gerrard.


Sean turner started us off with with a set which included his invention- 'the imortality box'- a converted plant pot on the head, based on the theory that no one has ever died with a plant pot on their head. Up next was the magical Flash, with his version of 'Play your Cards Right.' He did the same act last year, but he's improved it no end- he can actually do a Brucie accent now. Paul Gerrard was back with another flotilla of killa one liners. (You can use that quote on your posters, Paul.)

Then Pete, Cal and Al took over the middle section to tell the story of Churchill, as hilarious as it was informative, this ended with stand up sets from Hitler, Stalin and the great man himself.

Chris Ramsey took to the stage so his film crew (yes, he really had a film crew.) could capture his best bits, Chris is making a video to show all the New York promoters when he's there for the comedy festival. (yes, he really is going to the NY comedy festival.) Jamie Rothwell was back for his second appearance with a very smooth set. He's the guy who has to investigate our insurance claims, naturally he gets a lot of tall tales. 'Some charvas off the estate broke in, my collection of faberge eggs was completely ruined.' Finally Steff Peddie (off of the telly) made a welcome return and closed the night in fine style.
