It was another fun afternoon at The Star of Kings on Sunday. First to the stage to make them laugh was Stanislav Gunko who kicked things off by letting us know he’s a half glass full kinda person, or half nose full if you’re a banker. Next was Declan Evans and why Essex pubs can be a bit confrontational. It was then over to Mark Vincent and why his liver needs to lose weight. After Mark was Mac O’Donnell and the essential difference between book and street smart. It was then the turn of Cathy White who Tok her SAD lamp on a day out to the zoo to cheer it up. Tony Carr then told us of the joys of 70’s discos before Rohan Ashar reminisced about the good old days of school when his sporting prowess was rarely challenged. Duncan Hart then told us of his best, most alluring medical chat-up line. After Duncan was Jodie King and how the truth of a happy marriage is all about building a home, family and resentment together. David Sugden told us of midlife crisis travels before the mellifluous Barbara Fernandez gave us a little glimpse of what you can expect next Sunday when she does a preview of her soon to be Edinburgh debut, Singing, Sagging and Shagging.
After the teal we got off to a great start thanks to the hilarious Callum Mackenzie who’s from a village where guitars are compulsory and shoes optional. Next was Pablo (aka Ryan Connor), spreading the joys of multilingual living. It was then over to Catherine Robson and why the muffin man might need a CRB check. It was then over to Stephen Portlock and why he’s neither glass half full or empty. In fact, it’s best to just keep glass away from him altogether. Tracey Bowman then told us about her LGBT exams and why she’s had points deducted for thinking a gimp was related to a pixie. It was then over to Lauren Rivers and the essential squat toilet vectors before Archie Keen divulged that he has more names than a five-a-side team. The afternoon’s penultimate act was Louis Fletcher who has an issue with the poor pronoun usage in The Bible’s early work. Closing the show was the brilliant Christopher Donovan (pictured) and why gambling might be way more dangerous than you might think.
So that was Sunday afternoon at The Star of Kings. Next Sunday we have a great show lined up for you plus a preview of Barbara Fernandez’ Edinburgh show.
