An evening of stand up with Roy Walker
Saturday, October 25, 2025
Roy Walker – Legendary Irish Comedian & Former Catchphrase Presenter
With special guest: John Archer
Get ready for an unforgettable night of laughter with one of Britain’s most beloved comedy icons — Roy Walker, the legendary Irish funnyman and original host of ITV’s hit show Catchphrase. Known for his quick wit, charming deadpan humour, and timeless one-liners, Roy has been entertaining audiences for decades, from The Comedians and Live from Her Majesty’s to his unforgettable run on Catchphrase that made “Say what you see!” a national catchphrase.
Roy’s live shows are a masterclass in classic stand-up, brimming with warmth, sharp storytelling, and that unmistakable twinkle that’s made him a household name.
Supporting Roy is the brilliantly funny John Archer — one of Britain’s top comedy magicians and a Britain’s Got Talent semi-finalist. A former Penn & Teller: Fool Us winner and favourite of both Tim Vine and The Hairy Bikers, John blends hilarious stand-up with mind-blowing magic for a performance that’s clever, unpredictable, and side-splittingly funny.
Join us for an evening packed with nostalgia, wit, and wonder — where two comedy greats share the stage for a truly memorable night of entertainment.
