Show details:

Stephen Bailey

Stephen Bailey is the host of Celebs on the Farm/Ranch (Channel 5) and has recently filmed Live at the Apollo (BBC Two), Celebrity Mastermind (BBC One), Celebrity Coach Trip (E4), and the second series of The Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV2). It's been a busy few years for Stephen as he was the resident Agony Uncle on Zoe Ball on Saturday/Sunday (ITV) and a series regular on Big Brother’s Bit on the Side (Channel 5) until the end of their runs.

Stephen is also making noise on the comedy circuit with his trademark fun, charming and sassy style. He is a regular at major clubs around the country, and has also played major events such as Latitude & Stonewalls Summer Party. Most recently he has been seen supporting Katherine Ryan and Jenny Eclair on their UK tours.


In 2019, Comedy Central Live - Stephen Bailey; his first 30 minute stand-up special was released, and in 2020 Stephen will be seen as the new host of a returning Comedy Central series. He's also acted as warm up artist for ITV’s Loose Women and Let’s Lunch With Gino & Mel, and contributed to Attitude Magazine, Live Manchester, and the Huffington Post.


In 2015, his Edinburgh Fringe show was nominated for the Amused Moose Comedy Award (Best Show), and in 2020 he'll embark on a brand-new tour of the UK.

“A superstar in the making” - British Comedy Guide

“Stephen Bailey dominates the stage” - Chortle

“He's an arch-bitch with a winning smile, everyone's favourite gay best friend. Bailey's confident, funny & suitably rude” - The Review's Hub

 

Lou Conran

Having trained as an actress, Lou has appeared in various guises on tele and in the theatre, including, Pressgang (ITV), Jo Brand Through the Cakehole (Channel 4), The Borrowers (National Tour), numerous productions for the Edinburgh Festival and the more challenging and ground breaking role of Sara Bear, for three long series, in CITV's, classic and memorable, the "Teddybears". (No, no one else has heard of it either).

Lou's comedy career started back in the mid 90's, doing improv comedy with various groups in and around London. This has continued into the naughties with her move to Manchester, where she began her stand-up career in 2005. Having made the final of several new-act competitions in the mid naughties, she has continued to gig at many of the biggest clubs in the country as both an act and a compere. Lou is also a founder member of the Smirking Room comedy clubs in Manchester & Leeds where she comperes regularly.

“Naturally funny” - Sarah Millican

“Absolutely hilarious” - Chortle

“As filthy as she is fabulous, Lou Conran is a superlative storyteller” - Edinburgh Guide

 

Lee Kyle

In his never ending quest not to have a proper job, Lee Kyle spent time as part of an all male Spice Girls tribute act before spending a decade as a professional wrestler.

Managing the difficult trick of being both odd and relatable, he did a show at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2013 that he heard was well received but he doesn't read reviews because his psyche is too fragile to handle them so he isn't totally sure what they said.

Armed with props and a rapid gag rate he cuts a confident, if off-beat figure on stage. His jokes veer between the clever and the silly and deliver more than their fair share of belly laughs.

“Had everyone on their feet - Sublimely ridiculous” - The Northern Echo

“A brilliant performance.. Pure genius!” - NARC Magazine

“Quirky and original - the highlight of the night” - Giggle Beats

 

This show will also feature a newer act in the middle.
