A regular on BBC One’s Live At The Apollo, Tez Ilyas is also known for Man Like Mobeen (BBC Three) and Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins. Tez has also appeared on everything from The One Show to The News Quiz and, of course, his very own The Tez O’Clock Show on Channel 4. A phenomenally funny comedian who refuses to shy away from trickier subjects yet never forgets that the laughs need to come thick and fast.

Your host for the evening is Stephen Bailey, (Live at the Apollo, Celebrity Mastermind, Takeshi’s Castle etc). A proud Northern, working class, gay man. Best known as a TV presenter it’s the arena of live, stand up comedy where Stephen really shines. Gossipy, bitchy, close to the bone even, but with such an infectious sense of fun everyone gets the joke and no one is left behind.
“Natural talent” Metro “Rising star” The Sun
London Comedy Store regular, Roger Monkhouse`s trademark stage-prowling style and curious, inimitable manner have established him as one of the hottest names on the comedy circuit. Supremely confident, with audience banter down to an art form, Roger is happy to improvise freely but has no shortage of first class material in his armoury. A master of observational comedy with a routine that is universally and unfailingly hysterical.

Bristolian Dani Johns takes the middle spot. The comedians you see at Darwen Comedy Club are booked by Comedy In A Van
