Tuesday night we were back at The Star of Kings and kicking the show off was Harry Legge who’s been learning German, the warmest, cuddliest of languages. It was then over to Nasif Akhtar (pictured) a man you really don’t want to sit next to on a plane. We then had Babetta Mann who has been a great listener for her husband’s blah, de blah, de blah, blah, blah…well, she might mot have been that good a listener after all. After Babetta was Michal Jenicek and why if aliens saw humanity at chucking out time they’d just turn and leave. It was then over to Paul Certi. Paul wondered if dirty shoes can really be that bad a red flag on a first date…unless they’re covered in blood. Alex Howard then assured us he is definitely an adult due to the fact he’s not been interested in conkers for years. The musical comedy of Barbara Fernandez was next with her ode to therapy and associated medicated conditions. Closing the first half was the brilliant Seam Anderson who reckons he clutches the mic like a Ginster’s pie. Having recently given up sugar, the porn he keeps on his phone right now is a pic of a particularly tasty doughnut.
After the break we got off to a fabulous start thanks to Charlie Firth and how to master the art of the online pity profile. After Charlie we had Jamie Boder and Satan’s arsehole syndrome aka Crohn’s disease. Ramona Tinei then reminded us just why we should always be on the lookout for red flags on dates before Will Haslam reckoned we should have a more realistic renaming of certain London lines and stations. We then had Jenna White whose gene pool is the human equivalent of a Cluedo board. The evening’s penultimate act was Archie Keen. Now Archie’s real name is a big on the greedy side and has enough titular capacity for several people. Closing the show was the awesome Pete Kinsella. From dodgy dogs to snarky goldfish and a health and safety routine that could sort out Parliament, Pete finished off the night by having them in roars of laughter.
So that was Tuesday night at The Star of Kings. Next Tuesday we’re at The Bell and headlining we have Charlie Firth and Kim Hope.
