Wednesday night at The Bell was an absolute cracker of a show. Things got off to a great start thanks to Rich Bunn’s creamy Radio Four accent, which he just found, apparently. It was then over to Mj Hunter aka Stabby McGhee, who was quite the violent alpha male in a previous incarnation. Next was Tony Carr and the joys of never having kids. Just don’t tell his kids. We then had David Owootomo, the only man whom you wouldn’t mind farting in your lift. Laura Madewell then set the tone for the evening’s in joke by introducing us to a new word: rimginity. We had a bit of an unexpected musical interlude thanks to the one and only Jimbo. Who knew he was so multi-talented! After Jimbo was Ash Jordan and just why we shouldn’t drink lube. Closing the first half was the hilarious Chiff Powell, a man who’s a big fan of well-organised fun. He’s also at an age where he has therapy, but at his age, like Ryanair, has to pay extra for the excess baggage.
After the break, and a little magical demonstration on how to spot a lie or two, we got off to a truly sidesplitting start thanks to Donal Vaughan, a man who’s a stone cold 8 out of 10 hottie back in Ireland. Andy Brittain was next with his glorious man baby legs before Kate McGhee told us of the great rested tits. Next was Bob Griffiths, living proof offering someone a seat on the tube isn’t always welcome. Hot on Bob’s heels was Paul Bradley and why having a different accent to your parents can be problematic. The hilarious Angus Barrett was next with his trademark sumptuous and soothing prose before Harriet Stibbard told us why The City may have the dosh, but often very little brains. The fabulous Eve Perry was the evening’s penultimate act. Eve wants herself someone with a horse, but for God’s sake not a golden falcon! Our closing act was the brilliant Sonny Savage (pictured). Suited and booted, Sonny was on cracking form with some great theological advice on how to not get the trapdoor pulled on you as you stand at the gates of Heaven.
So that was a belter of an evening at The Bell. Headlining next Wednesday we have Henry Bretz and Karan Mehra.
