FOLLOWING on from the success of his last shows, Crowd Pleaser and Different Class, Irish comedy star Ed Byrne returns to the road next year.

A self-confessed “miserable old man” since the age of 23, Ed is now in his 40s and isn’t ready for the slippers and woolly jumper quite yet.

Instead, he is heading to Scarborough on February 12, with his show Roaring Forties.

Ed has been busy since his last tour with many TV appearances. He continues to be a regular panellist on BBC 2’s Mock The Week and Have I Got News For You, as well as other new comedy shows, including Don’t Sit In The Front Row and Alexander Armstrong’s Big Ask.

He is also a regular contributor to comedy and music shows on BBC Radio’s 2, 4 and 6 Music and presents a comedy series for BBC Radio 4 Extra called What’s So Funny? Ed will be appearing at Scarborough Spa on Wednesday, February 12.
